Ei välttämättä - ohessa ote eräästä historiikista (Wikipedia):Avautui, että nimi Fargo lienee sanaleikki.
Far = kauas, go = mennä.
"Henry Wells and William G. Fargo, who founded American Express along with John Butterfield, formed Wells Fargo & Company in 1852 to provide "express" and banking services to California, which was growing rapidly due to the California Gold Rush. Its earliest and most significant tasks included transporting gold from the Philadelphia Mint and "express" mail delivery that was faster and less expensive than U.S. Mail. American Express was not interested in serving California."
