Wiebe (surname)

Wiebe is a German surname, sometimes misspelled Weibe. The 'b' comes from the German 'ß' (double 's'). The family name Wiebe is allegedly meant to signify whiteness, as in "white woman" or "white man", depending upon which gender is being referred to. It is said that the Wiebe surname has been adjusted to reflect many variations in the United States. This is mainly because of its close association to Old Germany, and Adolf Hitler.
