iirc, the Trump family name used to be Drumpf or something similar and it was changed to be less weird/more distinguished.I've seen non-obvious changes occur due to shitty handwriting. If that's the case here then "k" became "mt" which isn't a massive stretch.
I'm of the belief that people with really bad last names like Sexe (pronounced "Sexy"), Blew, Cockram, Raasch ("Rash"), etc. - anything that's easy bully ammo - have a parental obligation to legally change them before they have kids. Some last names just need to be changed.
