I beleive nearly all records you’ll find of baby names online are based on United States data. As such, the decline of Adolph before the 1930’s could probably be attributited to the negative German propoganda leading up to WWI.
- ghaff 12y agoGood point. I was thinking of the obvious correlation but it would be reasonable to expect a drop-off of obviously Germanic names starting around the time of WWI. You do see a drop-off prior to that (which may well be related to US immigration patterns) but then a leveling off. That's followed though by a sharp dropoff around 1914 which you'd probably expect.
