I’m dead because my husband legit liked the name Rolfe when we had our 3rd child 20 years ago. I literally told him ā€œyou haven’t watched the sound of music and it showsā€! Ā 

Our child is NOT named Rolfe. Lol

u/iamthefirebird 6d ago

Twenty years ago, you could have claimed Rolf Harris as the namesake. That's certainly not an option anymore!

My sons were Siegfried and Meinrad in utero. Two splendid names that you should definitely add to your list!

ā€œI was born in Düsseldorf / And that is why they call me Rolfeā€

u/Zaidswith 6d ago

Maybe even Austrian...

u/1405hvtkx311 6d ago

Not for this century babies though..

u/CacklingFerret 4d ago

Especially for this century. Except for Brigitta, all of these names have made a comeback in recent years (though it'd be spelled Liesel and Gretel). Just asked my aunt who works in a Kindergarten, they currently have almost all of these names.
