Thins joke about not using his proper first name is so old and worn out by now it should definitely be retired. Just call the man Bernd and be done with it.
Or his other proper name: Landolf Ladig
What is this old joke I've never seen?
His name is Bernd Höcke, some guy instead called him Björn in a letter to the editor, a comedy show picked it up, people ran with it, others got confused, he was even announced at some point by AfD people as Björn and he clearly doesn't like it but, as said, it's getting old.
Not sure if you're mixing things up or if your just sticking to the joke really good 😅
Thanks
