Actually it does, King Ptolemy II Philadelphus of Egypt was nicknamed so in reference to his incestual relationship with his sister, he than named the ancient city he founded Philadelphia after this incestual relationship. The quakers when they moved to Pa didn’t know the original meaning of the ancient city and thought it meant wholesome brotherly love and decided to name their new city after the old one but they were wrong
