Talk:Odilo Scherer

Name
BOTH of his Parents are of German descent! German newspapers report, his name is OTTO Scherer. Can anyone confirm this? Thanks! --91.65.21.252 (talk) 23:20, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, that is true, Odilo is the Portuguese translation for "Otto". Both of his parents came from Germany. Scherer is of 100% German descent, a German Brazilian. 91.66.8.69 (talk) 16:38, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

Scherer was born as OTTO, later his name was changed to Odilo to sound more native (assimilation?!), also considering the anti-German sentiment after World War II.-91.66.8.69 (talk) 02:06, 13 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Do we have a reliable source for his birth name being Otto? At present the lead does not agree with the infobox.  www.examiner.com/article/cardinals-meet-to-prepare-for-conclave-can-we-expect-peter-the-roman gives its source as... Wikipedia! Hybrid2712 (talk) 12:33, 13 March 2013 (UTC)


 * No source forthcoming yet so I'll remove it until we have one. Hybrid2712 (talk) 19:19, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
