Good read . . . I too as others here, tend to see events past and unfolding through the prism of bbible prophecy.

"With respect to names"

The naming of Angela appears to be the key. In our previous research, Angela Dorothea Kasne does NOT follow traditional values of that time. That appears to be the "red flag."

It appears, anon has made the connection. Consider.

The thing that leads to Saxe-Coburg-Gotha is that Merkel was born Angela Dorothea Kasner. In those days German names ran in families according to certain rules. Hitler's sister was Angela and she had a daughter Angela "Geli" Raubal who was Hitler's mistress.

To follow what is being suggested, we go to German Naming Patterns web site.

German families often used the following pattern for naming children. Again, though, there were several variations used, and often the pattern was disrupted by other circumstances. When a duplicate name occurred in these patterns, the next name in the pattern was usually used. Often when a child died in infancy, his/her name was reused for the next child of the same gender. Too, a child's name was sometimes repeated when a spouse died and the surviving spouse remarried and had more children. This would result in half-siblings with the same name.

Taking from Wikipedia, Angela in my opinion a devoted marxist. She denies that.

Merkel was educated at Karl Marx University, Leipzig, where she studied physics from 1973 to 1978.[22]. At school, she learned to speak Russian fluently, and was awarded prizes for her proficiency in Russian and Mathematics.[31]

At the Academy of Sciences, she became a member of its FDJ secretariat. According to her former colleagues, she openly propagated Marxism as the secretary for "Agitation and Propaganda".[29] However, Merkel has denied this claim

Your chart: I read that whole thing back when I researched this. As I said, the first name was generally biblical. The middle name was after a family member according to the chart.

Hence the name you should be looking for is Dorothea, if they used the pattern. This info is found under the chart like the one you posted I am posting it for you to read:

Birth/ Baptismal Names

Two names were usually given to a child at birth or baptism. In Germany, the first name - what we often refer to as a given name - was a spiritual name, usually to honor a favorite saint. The spiritual name was often used repeatedly in families.

The second name - what we now would refer to as a middle name - was a secular or call name, and was the name by which the person was known.

One of the most common and heavily used saint’s names for males was “Johann” (with no “s”), and for females, “Johanna” or “Anna”.

Thus, in a hypothetical German family, we might see the male children named:

Johann Heinrich Riepe
Johann Hermann Riepe
Johann Friedrich Riepe

Respectively, these children would be known as Heinrich (Henry), Hermann, and Friedrich

Hope this clarifies what I am saying. When you go looking, look for Dorothea not necessarily Angela.
