Dutch B Crazy

[This is the second in a series of B Crazy posts]

Dutch surnames only date to 1812, when Napoleon conducted a census and required everyone to list a surname. As a result, some chose deliberately absurd or grotesque names, in the belief that this new custom would not last. Here are a few:

Dutch surname:

De Keizer
= probably a wordplay on Napoleon when people registered their name; Who are you? I'm the emperor.[citation needed]
Lit. "emperor".

Rotmensen
= rot, adjective meaning "rotten" + mensen "people"[citation needed] Lit. "rotten people".

Poepjes
= poep, noun meaning "poo/feces", + jes plural diminutive[citation needed] Lit. "excrement; poopie".

Piest
= piest, third-person singular form of the verb piesen meaning "to urinate/to piss"[citation needed] (He/She/It) "pisses/urinates"

Naaktgeboren
= naakt, adjective meaning "naked", + geboren meaning "born"[citation needed] Lit. "born naked"

Zeldenthuis
= zelden, adverb meaning "seldom", + thuis meaning "at home"[citation needed] Lit. "seldom at home"
