The Korean War medal is not very rare, and the odds of it having a name are slim.
The other medal looks like a Navy/MC Commendation Medal with V. The Army didn't start adding V devices to their version of this medal until Vietnam, so...
Remember when Admiral Boorda committed suicide back in '96 or so? He did it because he was wearing this medal with an unauthorized combat V. I'm fairly certain the V wasn't awarded on anything until well past WWII, but of course the vet that earned this one may have applied for it later on. Then, it would still be a "WWII award," though that particular medal would be a lot newer.
If it was sold with a Korean War medal, the commendation medal was probably a Korean award as well. Otherwise, the seller would probably have had some WWII campaign medals or a Victory Medal with it.
I'd be surprised if either of these medals could give you a clue as to who earned them. The soldier's name goes on the certificates which accompany these.
