Jenny took a train trip to Cryptovnia. Upon deboarding, she was handed a leaflet by Hugo, the station agent. Printed on the leaflet was the following enigmatic diagram:

L E O S I A X W M J W     Word List:
O N E B A T T I S M T     DZURLBWMW
U J A A L W B E W K R     JMFYYI

Hugo confiscated Jenny's passport and informed her that she would not be allowed to return home until she could provide the name of the famous cryptologist hidden within the diagram. In addition, her passport photo would be used as Hugo's personal screensaver unless she deciphered the listed words.

Won't you help Jenny recover her passport and obtain a trip back home by discovering the hidden name and finding the key to deciphering the word list?
