Wikipedia tells the following about the Geforce name:

> The "GeForce" name originated from a contest held by Nvidia in early 1999 called "Name That Chip". The company called out to the public to name the successor to the RIVA TNT2 line of graphics boards. There were over 12,000 entries received and 7 winners received a RIVA TNT2 Ultra graphics card as a reward.[2][3]

So not sure the origin is actually from Andrea Geforce, I can certainly not find any sources that confirm that.

Because he was not a famous scientist, like Alexander Ball, inventor of round inflatable objects.

you just need to create its wikipedia entry and it will exist soon.
