Yes, the scene was in the movie where Fraulein (probably spelled that wrong) Rottenmeyer asks Heidi what her name is, she replies, "Heidi". She then claims that that's ridiculous and asks for her real name.
I did some searching, and she wants to know because "Heidi" is a nickname for girls named Adelheide. Being the uptight woman that she is, Rottenmeyer asks for her full name, most likely, because she sees nicknames as innappropriate.

Ah, thank you, I took it literally, thinking that for some reasons she REALLY didn't know this. Btw, speaking of naames, if you are an English native speaker, are you able to answer this question of mine too? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0115157/board/nest/170408289?d=170408289#1 70408289

Haha, no problem!
I never would've guessed you weren't a native speaker!
*clicks, read question* ...Hmm. I have no idea why, either! It's probably just a wierd name because Dee Dee is wierd?
