I moved to Hive. You can read all my content there.
Due to a sad series of events steem is no longer decentralized nor censorship-resistant.
I don't know how it will look like in the future but right now it's more like a personal database than a proper blockchain.

cool picture and info

The explanation is that Amadeus means: "the one God loves," in Latin (amo: to love - Deus: God). The name Theophilus means the same, but in ancient Greek. (Θεος, theos: God - φιλέω, phileo: - to love).

Gottlieb is then the German form of the same name (Gott: God - lieben: to love)

So the names are actually the same, he just choose to use it in the Latin form instead of the ancient Greek.

Thanks. I knew about the German and Latim. I had no idea about the ancient Greek.

I just had classical languages in Gymnasium (Danish high school).
