Summer, you have to hold the title as "Poster Most Likely to Get a 300-Post Thread Started." I'm supposed to be planning out my Cub Scout Den's activities and just stopped by FR "for a minute." Ha! You know how that goes...

When I was in grammar school, there were several boys named "Adolf" or "Adolph", which today strikes me as unusual. They would have been born in the early 60's, and their parents would have been alive during WWII.

They were not of Germanic heritage, so I'm not sure why their parents picked that name.

They could be named after an ancestor.
