I was speaking to a man from Germany the other day.He said that Wade, pronounced Bada, is the name of the part of your leg that is called the calf in english.I thought that was interesting.Maybe has something to do with wading in the water(going in to that portion of your leg???)The other reference I have to Wade is from an old book I read on the Germanic tribes.There was a norse ocean God called "Wade"Not quite as historical as the other posts, which I enjoyed very much, but something to think about.
