[Opinions] Re: Wolfgang: Ethnic
If the background and surname is present, I do not see why you could not pen Wolfgang. It is a marvelous, handsome, sophisticated name.
Participating in the use and honor of your heritage, despite being third- or fourth-generation, is nothing to nurture concern over. My family has been here roughly the same length, and my name is in accordance with their origin.Be aware, however, that there will be confusion in the United States regarding the pronunciation. Then again, the majority names (despite their simplicity, or otherwise) receive their share of butchering at some point, so it really is unavoidable and should not cause worry.
