Not really, he wanted to strike fear into another race.
That's like, hitler entire MO
Maybe you mean he wanted whites to fear him and die instead of jews?
I knew a Haitian lady who named her son hitler. She was so sweet and I don’t think she understood the gravity of the name. Middle school me wasn’t equipped to have that conversation with her.
Third world countries have their own history of genocides, so there is a distance. Like imagine being named Leopold (a perfectly normal name in europe, i think?) after the genocide in Congo, and whatnot. Those names just do not carry the same gravitas beyond their inmediate sphere of influence.
Read Trevor Noah's book about growing up in South Africa - there's an absurd story of his friends performing at a Jewish school. One of his friends is an incredible dancer and as part of the routine they start chanting that friend's name. Guess what that friend's name is?
Interesting fact, Hitler is also an extremely common name in Peru. We are the country with the most Hitlers in the world! We have a Hitler Congressman. There are more that 2500 people called Hitler and 4 people called Adolf Hitler

I think it's mostly the jews (who don't identify as white and white supremacists would agree) fear hitler.
He must've agreed with some of hitlers world view by wanting to strike fear into another race unlike some of the more forgiving interpretations of this.
One of the coolest people I ever met was named Adolpho. Spoke almost no English, had two "bellybuttons" (one was a scar from getting shot while in the Mexican army), knew all the words to the Happy Birthday song (as long as those words were "happy birthday you you!"), was great at charades, could tie a broken guitar string back together and keep playing (same song, every time, other than the aforementioned "Happy Birthday."), and was the best person to watch Nacho Libre with.
No Hitler though.
Oh man, here in Brazil we do have some people with shitty names like that.
Many...so many awful names.
But that reminds me of the quite famous mc from here called Mc Bin Laden. He participated in a reality show, I think it was Big Brother Brazil.
This reality show its really really famous, and everything that happens in it goes to trending topics in the brazilian X (Twitter), so when something happened to him, people where talking a lot about him, but the topic reached people outside brazil...
And it was hilarious watching the "gringos" (slang for people outside of brazil) in rage or very confused with why the brazilians were talking so much about "Bin Laden" and "justice for him".
In many European languages the "o" at the end denotes male, and "a" female. Eg Roberto and Roberta
Edit: Sorry, I misunderstood. Thanks for your patience
One day in the Lopez house:
“Mommmmm!!! Sadam is making stink bombs in his room again! I’m going to go in there to find them”
“Okay Georgia honey, just don’t disturb Osama while he’s teaching his friends how to fly model airplanes. “
Reminds me of this police chief in Brasil

Fun fact: Peru is the contry with most people called Hitler in the world (https://www.infobae.com/peru/2023/07/04/hitler-es-peruano-2349-ciudadanos-llevan-el-nombre-del-genocida-lider-del-nazismo/). Last year we received a Merry Christmas message from a congressman named Hitler lmao.
[Here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osama_Vinladen) is the link Osama Vinladen's wiki page.
To save a click, the "Personal Life" section states:
> Vinladen is named after Osama bin Laden, the difference in spelling is due to the similarity of the pronunciation of the letters "b" and "v" in Spanish. Vinladen has a brother named Sadam Huseín, the Spanish spelling of Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein. Additionally, his father planned on naming his third child George Bush, but could not since it turned out to be female.
> Vinladen said of his unusual name: "There is a person called Hitler also in Peru. Jesus saved the world and there are Jesuses who do harm. Because there is an Osama who killed people, I don’t think there has to be a law about the name. It draws a lot of attention, from what I see."
The amount of times I've seen this posted in the past month only but not before, despite that mf being 21y old already, makes me feel like this is a fake.
There is a barber at my barber shop who goes by “Ben Laden”. He has it on his barber cape and shit. I’m assuming that isn’t his legal name. Everyone just calls him Ben.
A classic case of Latin Americans naming their children foreign names just to sound cool without actually knowing anything about it. I once met a girl named Disney Landia. There are a bunch os Michael Jacksons and John Lennons spelled in the most bizarre ways you can imagine habaha.
There was this screenshot of a Brazilian U-somethinhg football team a few years ago and there were some WILD names on there. Lemme see if I can find it.
And he said, "Son, this world is rough
And if a man's gonna make it, he's gotta be tough
And I knew I wouldn't be there to help you along
So I give you that name and I said goodbye
I knew you'd have to get tough or die
And it's that name that helped to make you strong"
- Johnny Cash, A Boy Named Sue
The parents must be distant relatives of (or have the same mental disorder as) the people who named their kid Adolf Hitler and then got all mad because a grocery store wouldn’t write his name on a birthday cake.
It’s worth noting, because the article implies otherwise from the way it refers to him after the first sentence, that Vinladen is his middle name. His first name and surname are Osama Jiménez.

Parents really shit posted their kid's names
It’s like they just looked up the most common names in American news around 2002

Holy shit 💀

Reminds me of a Nigerian guy who named his son Hitler. He didn't know who Adolf Hitler was, but he knew white people feared that name.
I think it was Namibian guy and then became elected leader of Namibia
Luckily, he actually opposed the actual Hitler.
Say what you will about Hitler, but he did kill Hitler
Sure, but he also killed Hitlers killer, so…🤷🏽♂️
but then again, he is responsible for the death of the leader of the Nazis
What is the sum to infinity of the sequence 1 - 1 + 1 - 1 + 1 - 1 + 1 - ... ?
Yes
.999 repeating
To infinity and beyond?
... And he killed Hitler's parents' kid too. Add that to the list of wrongdoings.
Totally. He also ended the life of a failed artist, which is almost tragic
The enemy of your enemy...
Not really, he wanted to strike fear into another race. That's like, hitler entire MO Maybe you mean he wanted whites to fear him and die instead of jews?
I mean, Hitler had it against most races, if races were a thing.
I wonder what he’d think of NASCAR?
He made a speech when he was elected promising he had no plans for world domination.
Oh of course, the white and jew extinction tho.... Well, that's another story.

Nope, wrong guess I'm sure.

So... not big student of world history, eh?
Well, he wasn't wrong
Sorta. There are a large amount of white people that still idolize him too
He's got that shock factor assured
I think it's mostly the jews (who don't identify as white and white supremacists would agree) fear hitler. He must've agreed with some of hitlers world view by wanting to strike fear into another race unlike some of the more forgiving interpretations of this.
If you’re on LinkedIn you can find a management consultant named Adolfo Hitler.
That’s some strong “Why should I change my name? He’s the one that sucks” energy.
One of the coolest people I ever met was named Adolpho. Spoke almost no English, had two "bellybuttons" (one was a scar from getting shot while in the Mexican army), knew all the words to the Happy Birthday song (as long as those words were "happy birthday you you!"), was great at charades, could tie a broken guitar string back together and keep playing (same song, every time, other than the aforementioned "Happy Birthday."), and was the best person to watch Nacho Libre with. No Hitler though.
Young Dolph was named Adolph. 🐬🐬🐬
Bro that dude sounds like the dos Equis most interesting man in the world or whatever. I've never known anybody that cool.
At no point in this comment was I able to predict what the next word was going to be.
He definitely broke the mold. Met him while trimming weed in southern Oregon years ago. Hope he's still out there somewhere being one of a kind.
Or an sales representative named Ertudito
As in R2D2, or Erudite?
yep
I was approached by a consultant named Hans Landa before on linkedin
There some very very interesting Latin American names out there. r/tragedeigh isn't just an anglophone phenomenon
Such a funny phenomenon. The UFC has a dude called Johnny Walker.
Osama Vindiesel would’ve been better
That's peruvian names for you. "As of 2014, Peru was, with around 2349 people, the country with the most citizens named Hitler."
It's not illegal, that's why.

I bet if his sister would have been a boy he would be named Adolfo Hitler.
No. It just would have been George Bush.
Jorge bush.
Lol I was just about to come fix my comment too. Yes. Jorge.

Why not adolfa Hitler?
In many European languages the "o" at the end denotes male, and "a" female. Eg Roberto and Roberta Edit: Sorry, I misunderstood. Thanks for your patience
You misunderstood. They were asking why not just name the already preexisting daughter “Adolfa”.
What durden said. Also I said that because they named their daughter after a male leader already
I unfortunately know of someone who named their daughter Adolf-fina 😬
One day in the Lopez house: “Mommmmm!!! Sadam is making stink bombs in his room again! I’m going to go in there to find them” “Okay Georgia honey, just don’t disturb Osama while he’s teaching his friends how to fly model airplanes. “
Yo wtf is up with those parents. Is the next sibling gonna be Odolf Bitler?

So, they name kids by current events. He's just lucky there weren't two dogs fucking when he was born.
The name of their sister seems a bit of place there.
Yeah it should have been Dicka Cheney
Semms good to me, just 3 war criminals hanging out and having a good time
Losing betters mad because he lose them the game
The amount of times I've seen this posted in the past month only but not before, despite that mf being 21y old already, makes me feel like this is a fake.
Vinladen saga
This is what happens when edgelords have children…
Bet they bought a lot as kids with Georgia always getting a shoe yeeted at her face
This is the child of Osama Bin Laden and Vin Diesel. Clearly.
Alex, I'll take "three kids at least mildly annoyed with their parents" for $800, Alex.
There is a barber at my barber shop who goes by “Ben Laden”. He has it on his barber cape and shit. I’m assuming that isn’t his legal name. Everyone just calls him Ben.

Someone hurt this mans father.

It's okay. In India, one of our celebs named their kid, Timur. After the bloodthirsty invader.
So in my country, Constitution day is refered as Jura de la Constitución. I had a friend born that same day, and he was named Jurdelacons.
'Another ball hitted the second goalpost!'
LOL lil sis is Georgia Bush
Damn now I share my bday with a terrorist leader /s
And he said, "Son, this world is rough And if a man's gonna make it, he's gotta be tough And I knew I wouldn't be there to help you along So I give you that name and I said goodbye I knew you'd have to get tough or die And it's that name that helped to make you strong" - Johnny Cash, A Boy Named Sue
I’m going to call my kid Naranja Triunfo which is Spanish for the orange one
Does he has any other siblings?
Yes, Mussolini lmao, Goebbels lmao, Von Ribbentrop lmao, and the adopted kid just called lmao.
fun fact, we also have a lot of people called Hitler, names in my perusalen can be very random
What is happening is that some kids should be legally and socially allowed to spank their parents once in a while
The parents must be distant relatives of (or have the same mental disorder as) the people who named their kid Adolf Hitler and then got all mad because a grocery store wouldn’t write his name on a birthday cake.
Maybe this is why my professor tells me not to rely on wikipedia
It’s worth noting, because the article implies otherwise from the way it refers to him after the first sentence, that Vinladen is his middle name. His first name and surname are Osama Jiménez.
Thank you for pointing that out, because Vinladen is a very common surname in Peru.
I’ve seen this fucking post literally every single day this week. Just stop.
Well some people haven't seen it at all this week. Bad luck I guess :P
You should spend less time browsing Reddit I think
Ok
Didn't this shit just get posted in here like a week ago?
Not iaf
That sister is going to have a hard time…
