Wolfgang / Wulfgang
[edit]This article is not correct. The name wulf stems from the Vikings, who wore a wolfskin on their backs, and like to be called wolves. See the book by Martin Arnold: The Vikings-Wolves of War. The term werewolf also stems from them. Also remember the Beowulf story and his mention of the Wulfinga dynasty from Sweden.
Wolfgang means in old German a wolfgänger (see also Doppelgänger). In the time of roman wars, the wolfgänger were a member of Germans special forces, wearing an wolf fur. ( Ger – man = man using a ger, a special kind of a spear)
WOTAN the head god of the „German´s“ has 2 companion animals, two wolves called Geri und Freki or the wolfgänger (wolfgaenger). :-) --Genom-x (talk) 18:43, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
