During the nineteenth century, legal double (Primary-Subsidiary) given names were composed of a classical Hebrew name plus an \"Old\" and/or \"NEW\" name, as the rabbis called them; thus, legal names could contain a single Hebrew name (Yehuda) or multiple names (Yehuda Leyb). The \"Old\" names were Yiddish names (Leyb), while the \"new\" names were German (Albert, Berta), Polish (Bernat, Pola), Hungarian (Andras, Szidonia), English (Julius, Isidore) or other secular names. In Germany the secular names were embraced first after the acceptance of Jews into German society during Age of Enlightenment, spreading later to Poland and Hungary where Jews added local secular names.
