Summary
How can you explain family names like Schöllhorn, Osterag, Fassnacht, Hebestreit, Waldraff, Kronenbitter, Gleichauf and Finkbeiner? And why is someone called a devil, but someone else called a priest or even a bishop? Where is your name brother, kindle or mother? Where in the country do the Hugs and the Haugs, the Brenners and the Scherers, the Sauters or the Sutterlins, the Zellers and the Buhlers live? What is your name in Swabian? Which names are typical for the Franks and which names do you come across when you are in the Alemannic-speaking area? Are there any surnames that are characteristic of Baden-Württemberg? And since when do we have a family name in Germany? The atlas answers all these questions. -- back cover.
