Dear Mr Tuckett,
I appreciate Dr Bierman's commentary, and I agree it is likely that Freud heard this story in Yiddish. The critical point, however, is whether he was aware of the German slang usage. If he was, the irony of the double meaning of 'Kalle' could not have been lost on him. To me, the point remains mysterious and inviting.
Best Wishes,
