Ferdinand I of Austria.
[edit]German writer: It´s makes no sense that the name Ferminand comes from Ferdinand I of austria.
see wiki.
For example he said "I am the Emperor, and I want dumplings!" (German: Ich bin der Kaiser und ich will Knödel!).
During the 1848 Revolution in Germany, when revolutionaries were marching to the palace, Ferdiand is supposed to have asked Metternich for an explanation. When Metternich answered that they were making a revolution, Ferdinand is supposed to have said “But are they allowed to do that?” (Viennese German: Ja, dürfen's denn des?) He was convinced by Felix zu Schwarzenberg to abdicate in favour of his nephew, Franz Joseph (the next in line was Ferdinand's younger brother Franz Karl, but he was persuaded to waive his succession rights in favour of his son) who would occupy the Austrian throne for the next sixty-eight years.
Also in Austria, Ferdinand was ridiculed as "Gütinand der Fertige" (Goodinand the Finished).
Sorry, but I don´t believe that a town in Indiana will choose a name from a such absolutistic sovereign.
If you see the history of the county spencer, the origion must come from a different person.
