This might be cheating, but...  ;)

The Guinness World Record for the longest name was a German, born in 1904:

Adolph Blaine Charles David Earl Frederick Gerald Hubert Irvin John Kenneth Lloyd Martin Nero Oliver Paul Quincy Randolph Sherman Thomas Uncas Victor William Xerxes Yancy Zeus Wolfeschlegelsteinhausenberdorft Sr.

...but he used the name "Mr Wolfe Plus 585 Sr."  ;D
