The problem is perception. If people associate the name with Hitler (and I think they do), then no matter what the "correct" definition is, the name will be what people think it is.

This is how languages evolve. If enough people think something about a word, then over time there is a good chance that word will morph into the the new meaning. The same thing happens with pronunciation. For example, originally the "correct" pronunciation of the word "forte" was "fort", however most people think and use "fortay". Now most dictionaries will give both pronunciations or even the "incorrect" one and over time it will almost certainly change into "fortay" completely.
