  3. Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.

    Here's a list for Germany, sorted by decade.
    http://www.firstnamesgermany.com/common-german-names/

    Same for surnames.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_the_most_common_surnames_in_Germany

    If you want a really common male name, my home town of about ~600K people had 12 "Peter Müller"s in the telephone book last time I checked a printed one.
    And I very well remember the day a classmate wanted to call me, tried to find me ion the very same book and stopped after page 12 - it's one of the top five surnames. Wouldn't have worked anyway, my father was listed, not me.^^
