While I don't know a whole lot about the law, and even less about German law, I find this baffling. If it were a minor I could see there being some logic, if it was a living person I could see some sort of "defamation" issue (although that would be stretching it). I don't understand what the issue is here ("we don't want our family's good name sullied by linking it with him"???), and I most certainly don't understand what the legal grounds are for requiring the name to be removed.
