In a similar way it’s annoying as when people bang on about the Trump/Drumpf thing. His great grandfather changed his name? So we’re going to mock the man for that? Real strong political discourse there.
"Drumpft", actually. I didn't know that until you prompted me to look it up.

No account is given of how the name change came about, only that it was a much more remote ancestor than his great-grandfather. Maybe someone else is in the mood to count the generations.
In Kallstadt, they pronounce the name 'Trump' as "de Drump" ("de" being 'the'), and the 'u' is as the 'oo' in 'boom' would be if you shortened it.
