>>109645779Anglos is some form or another. As we see here:
>>109645844The "Wayne" name was chosen by Bill Finger/Bob Kane bc of Maj. Gen "Mad Anthony" Wayne, who was an Army Officer in the Revolutionary and later Congressman from Georgia. It's an "old money" "American Anglo blue blood" kinda name, which makes sense bc of the Wayne fortune (even tho Anthony Wayne's father was really and Anglo Irish landowner from Wicklow.
"Bruce" is for Robert the Bruce. It isn't unheard of for rich Anglo families to have Scottish connections, but I think it more likely points to a Scottish/Jacobite connection within the family, which is where we get the recusant Catholic theory (this was the same thing that was hinted at with James Bond during the manor house scene in Skyfall). Which honestly makes sense. If the Wayne family were descended from recusant Catholics, it would make sense that they knew how to live double lives. Maybe the idea of having a secret identity is something Bruce comes by quite naturally.
