Here's four: The Cup, Lord Stanley's Cup, The Holy Grail, or Lord Stanley's Mug.
Lord Stanley
The Stanley Cup. It was named after the person who created it, Lord Stanley of Preston.
Lord Frederick Stanley was born in the UK
"Lord Stanley" is sometimes used as a nickname for the Stanley Cup. However, Lord Stanley was Frederick Arthur Stanley, Lord Stanley of Preston. He was appointed governor general of Canada in 1888 and served in that capacity until 1893. While in Canada his son became a hockey player and Lord Stanley grew fond of the game. He is best remembered for donating the Stanley Cup as a trophy for Canada's hockey champions and now is synonomous with the NHL champions. I suggest you Google the Stanley Cup and Lord Stanley for complete information.

Lord Stanley has been DEAD for years.
It is named after Frederick Arthur, first Lord Stanley of Preston, Governor General of Canada from 1888-1893, who donated the Cup as "a challenge cup which should be held from year to year by the champion hockey team in the dominion of Canada."
The Blues have never won Lord Stanley's Cup :(
he did not buy it, the cup (trophy) was made to honour him by calling it the "Stanley Cup" to be presented to the winning NHL hockey team. It was a changle trophy that started out in the late 1800s, the NHL never started until 1917.And he did buy it back thenfor all of Canada that had hockey teams. in the Early years teams from the USA even won it a time or two
The Stanley Cup! "All hail Lord Stanley!"
