- Data's creator was named Noonien Soong (https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Noonien_Soong)
  Khan Noonien Singh
  La'an Noonien Singh
  They were named after Kim Noonien Singh, who Gene Roddenberry knew during World War II. source
  
  Ah, I forgot Khan's middle name, and I figured that surely I was not the only one. Thanks!🙏:-)
I’m surprised Noonien Soong being related to Khan wasn’t brought up in TNG.
