Hi Bobby
The shortform for Theodor is usually Theo ..... but its possible that his
full name was Theodor Franz Hattorff but i have also been looking for Franz ...
without any success.

Dear A. Hattorf,
Perhaps try search using only town name of Labuhn.
Had thought that perhaps Isidor was eastern version of Theodore... but I'm not sure Isidor is feminine or masculine name.
Then I thought of Teofil... which I think in English language a variation of Phil...
Did you find this name in American church records? Handscribe record?
Perhaps recorder used his best known Latin to scribe record.
Take a good look at the script. T, F, P, and sometimes even J can be hard to tell apart.
To my eyes an "H" sometimes looks like a "W".
Old style lettering is also very hard to decifer.
How would the name be spelled phoenetically?
What if recorder understood German Language but primary education was Polish, Russian or other... The style of hand lettering may vary.
Well just some thoughts.
Warmest,
Barbie-Lew

Here is many variation of given names...
