    Well Martin Luther was seen as the first person to start the liberation of Christians from the oppression and false religion of the catholic church. So King was aptly named because he was considered a great fighter for a liberation of a people. Luther was a Protestant minister so He was in Faith terms similar to Martin Luther.
