Johann
I am doing a family history project on a family who originated from Silesia (Prussia/Germany) in about 1850. Among the original family and their descendants are more than 30 males born with the name "Johann". It is always their first given name, never their second or third given name. Is there a reason for this? Can anyone refer me to a reference in a book or on internet that discusses this?
