Quiz 9 - Who is your Daddy?

[Colo]

This weekend in the US we celebrate Father’s Day. So here is a game to help remember fathers and some of the notable figures the help create.

All have connections to Europe, albeit they may not be European.

I call this game “Who is your Daddy?

You are given the father’s name
The Spoiler Button will give you their famous child
Good Luck

Ian, I had you for 5.
I thought the Brits would know Alfred Roberts straight away and the Americans Hugh Rodham
Were there surprises?
You knew all the kids right?

 

[PatrickLondon]

5 possibly 6.

AR is of course papa to MT

JN = IG
JVB=J(K)O
HB = H
HK I thought might be AM
HR I knew for HRC

and I don't particularly care about pop stars.

 

[Colo]

Nicely done Patrick - looks like 6 to me by the initials you gave in the reply.
Definitely a big pat on the back for Hamilcar Barca.
Are you a historian by profession?

 

[PatrickLondon]

No, I'd have liked to be, I think, but I've just got one of those general knowledge brains.

 

[Pauline]

I got two, both Americans. Sad.

 

[Pauline]

The only one I don't know, after looking at the answers, is the second last one. Not sure who that is. The music ones I did not get but should have. They are beyond pop stars!

 

[Colo]

Sorry I missed your post. By now you probably already GTS the answer, but just in case.

A famous soccer player... oops "football player" that plays for Real Madrid
I figured only the serious sport's fan would have gotten that one.
