Oh honey, let me tell you - there are probably still some poor souls out there dragging around that unfortunate last name. But I highly doubt they're proudly introducing themselves as "Hi, I'm a Hitler." It's like being named Voldemort - not exactly a conversation starter at parties.

What was Hitlers original name?

Adolph Hitler's original surname as "Hitler."Adolph Hitler's father may have used the surname "Schicklegruber" as a child, but that is not certain.Adolf Hitler's father, Alois, was actually born as Alois Schicklgruber but he changed his surname to Hitler before Adolf was born.


Did Adolf Hitler have any relatives by the name of Peter Hitler?

No Hitler had 1 sister and 1 brother, His sisters name were Paula Hitler and His brothers name is still a mystery. But when Hitler came into power he made his mom father and sister change there last names burn and picture with Hitler in it. So that when Americans came they couldn't get Hitlers background


Did Hitler have another name?

His birth name was Adolf Schicklgruber, which was his mother's name, because Adolf was illegitimate. Hitler was the name of his stepfather. In German, "Adolf" was written as "O'wolf". His last name was also written different but I don't know German. He went by the name of Adolf Wolf in his early political days for security reasons

Was Adolf Hitler's real name Adolf Schicklgruber?

Adolf Hitler only ever had the surname Hitler.Adolf Hitler was born on 20 April, 1889 in Braunau am Inn, Austria. His parents were Alois Hitler and Klara Hitler (nee Pölzl). Klara was his 3rd wife and his second cousin.Alois Hitler was born on 7 June 1837 as the illegitimate son of Anna Maria Schicklgruber and Johann Georg Hiedler. He went by the name of Alois Schicklgruber until he was 39, when, in 1876, his uncle, Johann Nepomuk Hiedler, included him in his will on the condition that he change his name to Hiedler. As a result of dialectic variations the name change was recorded in the church registry of the parish of Döllersheim on 4 June 1876 as Alois Hitler.On 6 January 1877, the name change was officially confirmed and Alois Schicklgruber became Alois Hitler, which secured him his share of the inheritance.In the 19th Century there were several variations of the name in Austria: Hüttler, Hiedler, Hittler and Hitler depending on region and dialect and all variations were pronounced more or less the same. It is accepted that the variations are derived from Hütte (hut) and was probably used to refer to a peasant or small holder.As to why Alois Hitler did not correct this mistake and ensure that his new surname was correctly recorded as Hiedler is debatable. Journalist and histororian Wolfgang Zdral wrote in his book The Hitlers: "[Alois] probably liked the idea that he could distance himself from his ancestry with this variation. As "Hitler" he would begin a new branch of the family tree and as a dynastic progenitor he would found his own clan".
