List of things named after Glenn T. Seaborg

Nobel Prize-winning chemist Glenn T. Seaborg is known for his considerable legacy. At one time, Seaborg was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for having the longest entry in Marquis Who's Who. Glenn T. Seaborg's legacy was cemented with the naming of element 106 as seaborgium in his honor.

No other individual has had their name to an element during their lifetime (the names einsteinium and fermium were proposed when Einstein and Fermi were alive, but were not approved until after their deaths).

The list of things named after Glenn T. Seaborg below supplements his biographical entry.
