What? The lady was married before (she has children) so maybe that’s her ex-husband’s name. Many women keep the name if they have had children as it is less confusing - the schools, doctors, etc. all see a mom with the SAME name as the kids.

And even if it IS her maiden name, did you ever hear of people anglicizing their names b/c of prejudice????? Jews have done it for years as have certain other Eastern Europeans who don’t want to be harassed.

lol

for the record I don’t know one Jew in my life who changed their name because of prejudice

some celebrities changed their name because maybe Smith sounded better on the screen than Finklestein.

everywhere I lived where Jews were in abundance they hardly had to worry about prejudice, hell they were the establiushment

Manhattan, Miami, Los Angeles

and btw....Jewish women are in my experience the most likely to hyphenate the last name or keep daddy’s.....far and away

i’m betting she’s just another shiksa playing along with the Jewish wedding to make Prager’s kinfolks happy in case there are spawn
