Stauble
South German (Stäuble): diminutive of Staub. The entire surname suggests 'to cause a storm' in the metaphorical sense, though a literal translation might be 'to cause a dust storm.'
Although originally 'von Stäuhble,' many Teuton's including American immigrants from Switzerland and Germany shortened to 'Stäuble.' During the wars of the early and mid-20th century, North Americans of Teutonic ancestry further 'americanized' their surnames to prevent suspician of potential loyalty to the advesary. 'Von' was eliminated by a number of the Stäuble clanmembers at this time. Similarly, during the period of anti-German feelings in England during World War I, many German names and titles were changed and given more English-sounding names, including the royal family's from Saxe-Coburg-Gotha to Windsor.

Staub
German (Stäub): : from Middle High German stoup, German Staub ‘dust’. The surname may also be ornamental.

Almost all Stäuble's live in Germany and Switzerland, though several hundred individuals may be found in the USA and Canada. Though small in number, they have a long tradition of distinction in european politics and science which has continued through the current generation.
