      He’s been doing that since long before he ran for president. He literally pretended to be his own PR guy for a while. He literally called him self John (his middle name) Barron (his kid’s name). It’s typical of people with his mental disorder not to have imagination because they have no curiosity to think about anything but themselves.

        I believe he created the fake name before his kid was born. He literally named Barron after his fake name.

        And here I thought my shitty method of bashing two random ancestors names together was bad, but I guess that’s not too bad since it’s harder to figure out where I’m pulling shit from. Also I get bangers sometimes, there’s at least two random ass sites with the name Arminius de Bruce listed as a member.

            I know you’re shit posting but I did once mash together the names of my great grandfather and my 2 times great grandfather on the opposite side of my family true, this resulted in the culturally disgusting name of Willard Wilms.

                It’s especially funny since Willard is a traditional Celtic name and Wilms is a slightly Americanized name from what is today Baden Germany. Though at the time my ancestors left it was still Baden, Baden.

                  since Willard is a traditional Celtic name

                  It’s Germanic, as are most names ending with -ard or -hard (Richard, Bernhard, Eberhard). It appears in old English as Wilheard.

                  Wilms can also be a form of Willems, which is Dutch. I don’t know if it occurs in Allemanic-speaking regions such as Baden. It might. I’ve been there, but only once or twice long ago. But I know the Low Countries well and have seen the surname used both in the Netherlands and Flanders.

                    Then where the fuck did my family get it from? Cause we almost exclusively stick to Celtic, Roman, and Christian names IE Lucius, Jess, Gordon, Robert, Michael, Scott, and Antony so why did we pick up a random German name to start throwing at random kids every couple of generations. Like don’t get me wrong it’s faded in the last couple generations but I can’t imagine my 2x grandpa Jess.

                    The Willms (how it was spelt before immigration) were surprisingly well traveled and I know that the mother of my ancestor who came over was from Schleswig-Holstein so it’s possible the name moved around.
