Well, I had my "English speaker learning German" moment where I realized that Daumann = Thumb = Thumb Heavy Construction. Is there some background to the word that I'm missing? Because DHC looks like a joke to me now.

Daumen would be thumb...Daumann would be a name, me thinks.

Daumann =/= Daumen = Thumb? Wha?
Thumb Heavy Construction. - Korny - 10-11-2010
Daumen = Thumb
Daumann = ???? (Could be a surname)

Ahh, I get it. Based on the founder's name, not the wiggly things on the sides of your hands that make mundane tasks so simple.

Quite a few house corporations are named after their founders. Otherwise Cryer Pharmaceuticals would just sound silly and inaccurate.
