      Hmm.

      Seems legit according to Wikipedia:

      According to biographer Gwenda Blair, the family descended from an itinerant lawyer, Hanns Drumpf, who settled in Kallstadt, a village in the Electoral Palatinate of the Holy Roman Empire, in 1608, and whose descendants changed their name from Drumpf to Trump during the Thirty Years’ War (1618–1648).[31] The last name Trump is on record in Kallstadt since the 18th century.[32] Journalist Kate Connolly, visiting Kallstadt, found several variations in spelling of the surname in the village archives, including Drumb, Tromb, Tromp, Trum, Trumpff, and Dromb.[33]

      But also way earlier than relevant or than I thought.

      Drumb tho.
