Hi.

Actually, I didn’t know your names don’t have meanings.
I will be careful when I write things in German or English.

Since Offenbach is also the name of a German City and the first thing that came to my mind it kinda made more sense to me.

I thought Offenbach was a name.
Could you tell me some common family names and first names?

Huh? Your German sentence is correct, but I though you wanted a sentence with [die Namen].

Sorry!
I have made a mistake again!
My brain was completely mixed up.
I already have “die Namen”.
I need “der Namen” and “den Namen” in plural.

Here are a few I just thought of.

Den Namen habe ich noch nie gehört. (I've never heard that name.)

Wie findest du den Namen? (How do you like this name?)

Er verrät der Polizei den Namen des Täters. (He gives the culprit's name to the police.)

Actually, I didn’t mean that singular “den Namen”.
Plural “den Namen”, please.
I think the German grammar is complicated.

Well, it's certainly not easy, but I do think my own confusion from my last post caused you more confusion than it should have. I hope things are a little bit clearer now.

Now, I have these sentences below.

The name means mind. = Der Name bedeutet Verstand.

The meaning of the name is spirit. = Die Bedeutung des Namens ist Teamgeist.

He enters up in the name of Offenbach. =Er trägt sich unter dem Namen Offenbach ein.

I remember the name. ＝Ich erinnere mich an den Namen.
(merken = memorize erinnern = remember)

The names bring me back to the memory. =Die Namen wecken Erinnerungen.

I need a sentence including “der Namen”, here.

I need “den Namen”, here.

He writes the names on the paper. =Er schreibt die Namen über das Papier.


Please help to write two more sentences with “der Namen” and “den Namen” in plural.

Danke schön!
Bis spatter!
