I assume that the family Knopke composed of two words, namely "Knop" and "guy". "Knop" is closely related to the word "Knorr" = grown crooked, twisted planks = = long boat of the Vikings, and the suffix "ke" means guy. Taken together, the two words are so boat guy. Today we say "boat man," said Petty Officer today is responsible for the maritime (craft) part of ship operations on the deck while the "Knopke" was also involved from early in the construction of boats. I go further assume that this last occurred on the coast of the Baltic Sea Sorbian (Baltic Sea) between the mouths of rivers and Schlawe Stolpe, where contact and Vikings over the centuries in tight, hostile zumeißt Contact faced. Vikings passed on their way from Haithabu in the great Russian rivers and back constantly Wendish coast of the Baltic Sea, and so the word "Knorr" in "Knop" adapted and vice versa. is interesting in this context, the former Berlin fashion word "Knorke" which means "exceptionally great, good, means, and the sailors were the Vandals, in fact. In 1066 AD, contact the lead from the Baltic Sea (West Slavic) with their ships at that main trading center of the Vikings to Haithabu (near Schleswig), it basically destroyed and drove the Vikings from there for all time. This was certainly an extraordinary fact, for centuries the Vikings any social development in their Germanic sphere of influence had by raiding impossible.
