  CiviCRM DOES store that information, but doesn't expose it to the user interface. So you have two choices:
  
  * Check with SQL. This will give a list of all events with creators:
  
  ```
  select ce.id, ce.title, cc.display_name from civicrm_event ce JOIN civicrm_contact cc on ce.created_id = cc.id;
  
  ```
  
  Add `WHERE ce.id = x` before the semicolon at the end to just show a single event (where `x` is the event's ID).
  
  * I wrote an extension that allows you to view (and change) the name from the user interface called [Edit Event Manager](https://github.com/MegaphoneJon/com.megaphonetech.editeventmanager).
