Children born to Jews in Germany may not henceforth be given “German names,” it was announced today. All Jews who have changed their Jewish first names into “German names” will have to revert to the old Israelite style. Germans bearing Jewish-sounding names will be given sympathetic aid in getting them changed if they can prove they have no trace of Jewish blood in their veins.
