[edit] 1.

Why the "1." in the name? --euyyn 22:17, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

In German its "Erster" (English, first) and is a common naming convention for German football teams. If you root through the list of clubs from the country, you'll see several examples. It often boils down to a little oneupmanship, tagging yourself as a city's number one side. Sometimes the 1. is associated with the first club established in a city, but not always.
