The word boson was coined by Einstein after his friend Satyendra Bose. Bose's work on quantum mechanics was adopted by Einstein who extended it to the Bose-Einstein condensate, a dense collection of subatomic particles. Higgs of course is the name of the British scientist.
Thanks for the wonderful post.
