I suppose that has some merit.  Though Andrey has a point: how do you
know which way round the name is?  I think it should be evident that
this bloke's name is Rudolf CEJKA, but what about the people who lived
in my neighbourhood some years ago?  Peter Philipp, Adolf Otto and
another one whose name I've forgotten.  On the whole, I think I
retract my suggestion.
