Ebenezer Scrooge is the main character in Charles Dickens' 1843 novel, A Christmas Carol. He is a cold-hearted, selfish man, who despises Christmas and all things which engender happiness.
I think it fits this clue because it starts with E (then later ezer for "E's are", then bene means good and a scrooge is a tight fisted person.
