This could explain why I've never met, or heard of a German, or Austrian with the sur name Hitler.

I may be wrong, but, the post-war laws that prohibit the display of Nazi symbols (the swastika, etc.), or doing the “sieg Heil!” salute, may well prohibit naming kids after famous Nazi’s too...

I heard that Hitler’s Hitler relatives ALL changed their surnames...pretty well voluntarily (understandably), immediately after the war.
