Re: Babynames of week 51/2017 and 52/2017

Yes they do. Not very often but it will get used. We use all kinds of different names there because of the different cultures surrounding us.
Some germans travel to Italy often because they love it - thats why my cousin is named Francesca :)
Some like Nordic names, some like American names. We do have immigrants too from Russia, Italy, Poland, Syria, Africa, Iran, Iraq and many more countries.
Those names you think of Friedrich, Detlef, Heinrich, Alfred, etc are actually not very common anymore. Most actually think they are too oldfashioned right now and not usable - unless used as honoring as middle name.
