Sigvald speculated (as usual):

Not at all!

> By the way to correct Dutch way to write Kruse seems to be "Cruys".

Nope. Cruys is even more unusual than Kruse.
(And it's pronounced differently.)

I know 2 people with the name Kruse, none named Cruys.

There is of course the famous Dutch comic creator Jan Kruis.
But he's neither connected to Disney comics nor to Norway.

("cruys" is an old-fashioned spelling of "kruis" (cross); another one
is "cruise", a word the English took over to indicate "crossing"
the sea.)
