    I would expect that the GB meaning is from the similarity to the sound of a  trumpet.

    The current presidents name is more likely to be derived from 'triumph'.

    The family name was Drumpf, changed to Trump, I guess to make it sound more English.

  • More American don't you mean like the English monarchy changed their name to Windsor instead of the German name Hanover?

    This seems to be a title thing more than a name change. Duke of Windsor means duke of the city windsor and its sorrounds "windsor" is not his name, and the title was given after they came to England.
