Still interesting, however, that women currently in their 70's would more likely have been born during the Weimar period. I also live in Germany, by the way, and for the sake of realism, I think that a name (particularly in the minds of English speakers) that might better summon the image of a staunch NS supporter, would be a more traditional name. These are things that writers need to take into consideration. For example, it is why Dracula was not called Herbert Krosnov.
