And?

My grandfather was a brown shirt Nazi in Stuttgart.

Should I be responsible for his actions?

No, your name is clean when you get it, and is what you make of it.

But in the general scheme of things, parents do influence their children. From the Wikipedia entry about the current Mayor:

“He is a self-described progressive and socialist.[5][6] Lumumba has also referred to himself as a political revolutionary.”

The “Lumumba” in their names most likely comes from the first Prime Minister of the Republic of the Congo, Patrice Lumumba. After he got himself killed in a coup, the Soviet Union named the “Patrice Lumumba Peoples’ Friendship University” in his honor.
