It means 'noble wolf'. It's a shame Hitler had to be a dick and ruin it forever. Is it possible to name a boy Adolf these days without being some sort of backlash?
I think it's odd to say. Adolf. Just doesn't roll off my tongue. But I can see a day where there are hipsters named Adolf.
its the school system's fault, i think. every other year in history class was about nazis and jews and this whole feeling of telling us how to feel about it all. the weak minded people can't put the past to rest. personally, i think adolf sounds like a pussy, but thats just me.
I know someone who knows an Adolfo in Argentina. I think you'd find no one particularly cares over there... But in many places, you'd have to really love the name to put your kid through that.
I think I remember a story regarding this on yahoo news a few weeks ago. Some couple had a son and named him Adolf and now they're having a custody battle for naming him that. it's stupid as f*ck lemme check if it's still there edit: nevermind, that was way long ago lol. but here's a link to the updated story, it looks like they're losing all 3 of their kids just for using taboo names. it's still an ignorant parenting move. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/10/26/baby-hitler-parents-lose-custody-kids-even-though-judge-says-no-abuse/
Well the dad was a known white supremacist with nazi tattoos and there was evidence of domestic abuse in the house. They shouldn't be raising children. It's one thing if they did that as a joke to troll the entire world but apparently they were serious.
i vote no.. don't name your kid that. the name is tarnished. there are at least dozens of other names to choose from that mean something cool. adolf reminds too many people of too many bad things.
