Meaningful Name
Take That: Auric Goldfinger is named after Erno Goldfinger, an architect whose buildings Ian Fleming hated. Apparently, Erno threatened to sue Fleming for unauthorised use of his name. In that event, Fleming would have changed the name to Goldprick. OUCH! This was later lampshaded by the title of the third Austin Powers movie.
- It is now speculated that he is also based on a German spy who, amongst other things, once tried to rob the Bank of England during World War One. The story has only recently come to light but Ian Fleming was a fairly high-ranking officer in Naval Intelligence, and would have had access to the records.
