It can be referred to as the Krebs cycle because Hans Krebs stood on the shoulders of giants, and in conjunction with William Arthur Johnson, discovered the cycle in 1937
Krebs went on to win a Nobel Prize, Johnson did not, and as so often happens in science - for better or worse depending on if your last name is included or not - the cycle that facilitates the metabolism of ketonic acids in animals tissues became affectionally known as “The Krebs Cycle.”

Answer:
Krebs cycle is also known as citric acid cycle because the first product formed during the cycle is citric acid. Citric acid is formed by the condensation of an acetyl group with oxaloacetic acid and water.
