Duder is a first name and surname widely used throughout Astyria, transcending borders and cultural divides as a remarkable example of premodern multiculturalism. The precise origins of the name remain a matter of debate, but it is commonly believed to derive from the Aquitaynian Aesir Mountains, which have a history of odd language and name variations of the Vik'Rus. It was widely diffused in the fourth century BC with the Ethlorek migrations out of Aquitayne to the west and south.
The name Duder can be, and has been, used in variations as a first name, a middle name, and a last name, across nations like Aquitayne, Symphonia, Trellin (particularly in Arimathea and Cadenza), Nikolia, and Berique. This name, for uncertain reasons, has permeated all national borders and come to be known as “the Name of Astyria”.
The commonplace and widespread use of this name has warranted the University of Morudore to begin funding a new division of linguistic studies, Duderology, the study of the use, commonplace, and division of the term, 'Duder', in an attempt to isolate the reasons why this name and its variants have become so popular, both throughout history and in the modern era.
History
The name Duder most likely has its origins in the Aesir Mountains of Aquitayne[1]. It is believed to have been brought overseas by the great waves of Ethlorek migration in the sixth through third centuries BC, arriving most significantly in Nikolia and Trellin. It also later spread to Cadenza, and, by way of Arimathean colonisation, back north to Neu Engollon.
Possibly the most prominent Duder in Astyrian history is the fifteenth king of Trellin, Duder Azarinë, whose brief reign in the early second century AD was characterised by massive upheaval. He was the first Christian monarch of Trellin, and was slain in a large uprising against his attempted forcible conversions. "Quite simply", writes Duder Dudriqi, of the Cadenzan Institute of Duderology, "the world was not ready for King Duder." The ignominy of his fall is such that no other Trellinese ruler has been named Duder since.
