i read somewhere, a while ago, that in the phillipines hitler is a relatively common name, i forget why...something to do with spanish eradication of names, and then local taking of famous western surnames, or something?

friend of mine swears that mum of a friend of his taught english to 2 women named hitler & stalin

which sounds urban mythic to me
