Rotraut Susanne Berner: Hello. My name is Rotraut Susanne Berner. I'm calling from Germany. I have two first names, Rotraut and Susanne. My Christian name, Rotraut, is very rare in Germany, and as a little girl I was very unhappy with my name because it sounds like Rotkohl, which means red cabbage. Many children were teasing me for that. As a grown up, I changed my name to Susanne, and for that reason I now have two first names. Best wishes from both, from Rotraut and from Susanne.
