Hej Satu,
yes, I was thinking of that, too, but I'm not sure.
While you are here, I'd like to ask you: The Sorbs of eastern Germany, do they use German first names? Do you have any examples of Sorb surnames? I just find them interesting...

Hej Caprice,Most Sorbs in Eastern Germany have got German first names (I mean names USED in Germany, not usually of German origin of course).I can't think of many Sorb names... some first names are:Borbora (Barbara or Bärbel in "German")
Bjarnat (Bernhard)
Køesæan (Christian) - I'm not sure about the right spelling here...
Pìtr (Peter)
Mìræin (Martin)
Arnošt (Ernst)and some last names are (different spellings):Schuppan / Župan
Starosta / Starosse
Witzschas / Wiæaz
Lehnig / LenikHälsningar
