I honestly wouldn't have assumed any of those. "Clarks" is a very famous shoe brand in the UK, and here, Clark is a surname. Ironically, Clark Gable's real name was "William Clark Gable" apparently. So, Clark was actually more likely a surname.

I guess Clark Olofsson was also named after Clark Gable, as Clark is not a particularly Swedish name either.
