Chemla-Lamèch named some craters after notable people he knew.
This crater here was named "Dupont", after Paul L. Dupont.
However, in 1935 the IAU (International Astronomical Union) didn't accept this designation; it was designated 1123 "Pico E". Current ID: 12018 (2006).
Paul Louis Auguste Dupont (1878-1949) was a Belgian industrial and amateur astronomer.
