yes...there is no doubt...yes

Yeah, I don't see anyone using those names anymore.

Yup.

Yep. It's just one of those things.

Sadly it's the same with names like Osama too. Imagine how quickly a kid called Osama or Adolf would get labelled in school.

How sad.....

He also killed that mustache....... Not even Michael Jordan can bring it back.

in english speaking countries yes.
Everywhere else, not so much

You might be able to manage with Adolf, but people with the Surname Hitler suffer worse treatment

also imagine someone who has Hitler as a surname... NOW THAT'S BAD

The Mustache

Hitler

Adolf

French Adolphe

The nazi symbol(Swastika)

Evan being an german for some is an source of hate.....

All this got ruined but why didnt the hawk get ruined too?

its an non sense.

Did you know its wasnt evan the nazis who started the camp?I mean cmon history.....i'm not an pro nazi in fact i dont like nazis but the history is exagaring the nazis i mean if i'm not wrong the first goal of the nazis is that the germans is above everyone right?But it was never told to kill anybody as far as i've learned.Yes its an bad thing to feel superior but its not enought to be this much hated.Hitler did that and no one else.Talking about Hitler yes in the end he was one of the worst persons on earth that ever existed(i'm sure in history there is one or two that is worst than him) but before he turned crazy he wasnt that bad.After math yes Hitler and nazi are evil but if we were in an different reality i dont think things would have turned like that.Russian started the genocid.But anyway

I'm sure hitler helped the multinationals of today.

Pfft, Charlie wore it better.

Lol i forgot about this one.

Yes.

I don't it's ruined, just not popular. Hitler's nickname was 'Adi' as many adolf nicknames are including Adolf Dassler (or Adi Dasssler) AdiDassler.... the Founder of ADIDAS. Maybe there may be refuge in using this nickname for those named Adolf.

Ruining the name is not even slightly comparable to the grand scheme of atrocities he committed.

Way to not know what you're talking about but still write a paragraph about it. If you think the Nazis/the Holocaust was "exagarated," you need some serious remedial history lessons.

Adolf Hitler ruined Adolf like Judas Iscariot ruined Judas.

Hey, bro, pass the bath salts, will ya?

Historically before the start of WW2 what Hitler achieved before he went totally batsh!t was incredible really, to restore Germany from its crippled state after WW1 into the position it was in 1944. I often wonder what would have become of Germany had the path to war been averted, but this was completely unavoidable due to the extreme nature of the Nazi party. I love that line from Captain America: '...The first country the Nazi's invaded was there own.'

Kinda a little bit, yeah.

Yup.

Yes.

Look up Lebensraum, Nazi Germany's foreign policy. Lebensraum means 'living space', and the policy is all about their 'superior race' displacing the 'inferior foreigners'. In other words, expansion and invasion.

Look up the casualties of the war and the Holocaust. There's a couple billion reasons for us to hate the man right there.

There's no excuse for what Hitler did, he's a hated individual for good reason.

And yet "Joseph" and "Chairman" are still viable names...

Of course he did. He wore it before Hitler did. Hitler just copied it.

Superior race yes invasion i'm not so sure.Yes but he's not the worst there is(i'm not trying to excuse anything just pointing an fact)besides you cant deny that at first he wasnt crazy.

Unless i need history lessons Nazi=Feeling superior but doesnt not implies invasion or killing,its implies racism(Yes racism is an bad thing but its nothing compared to kill someone).This said in my point of view invasion is not a (complete)bad thing(Not saying an war is not an bad thing) if you succeed because that's the only way to unify earth.Napoléon was a great man and he invaded Europe..Look if i'm wrong on the nazi thing i'm sorry ok(How dumb -_-)do you have any site for me to check your says?

It's right there in the name: 'Lebensraum' means living space. Invasion was always a part of Nazi foreign policy.

And two wrongs don't make a right. Even if (for the sake of argument) Hitler isn't the worst there is, what point are you trying to make then?

Hitler was never 'crazy', just delusional at points. But whatever his actions pre-NSDAP, history will always consider him an evil man for his actions in WWII alone.

Yes he did.

Yep, it's pretty much widely avoided.

Yes. He also ruined some old pagan symbols with no relation to his ideals because I guess he thought they looked cool. Thor's symbol for one. Poor poor Thor, no longer can he use the symbol of his being.

Damn, Thor's logo is pretty fly.

@veshark: Except Hitler modeled the Swastika after it so it kind of ruins it.

@madnessfall: You do realize that he wrote Mien Kampf before he came into power and in that he detailed the necessity for Germany to remain "pure" and the need to make Germany stronger by "cleansing" it of foreigner. He may have not explicitly said to kill those people, but the intent was there from the beginning. He also wasn't really "crazy" ever, just a deplorable and wretched excuse of a man. To call him crazy takes away from how vile a human being he was.

My point is to remain the truth(And i kinda failed i think) i'm not trying to defend Hitler.

You got a point here.I know he was never an excellent person but he wasnt crazy from the beginning yes he wanted to make Germany stronger but that never implied to kill persons.

He's ruined the name in the same since as the way that no one is named Judas in these days.
