German Kevins



I’m a bit of a sad sod and looked at the line ups of the weekend’s Bundesliga fixtures and found some thing a bit weird.

Every match a part from one had at least one player with the name Kevin in one of the squads. That’s 7 out of 8 matches. Didn’t realise Kevin was that popular a name in Germany.
What odds did you get?

You can blame Dances With Wolves for that.

After it came out, Kevin became the most popular boys name in quite a few European countries and for quite a few years in certain areas.
