His given name was John Lobert...but as with several other players of that time (most notably his teammate, John Wagner) he earned the nickname "Hans" because of his German ancestry.

I think John is Johan in German. So I figure Hans is short for Johan.

Do yourself a favor and track down the Glory of their Times CD set, which is available at many public libraries. Their is a delightful interview with Lobert...interesting to hear about the times and players in the man's own words.
