Jewish anecdotes reflect the changes over the course of history that have occurred in Bohemia and Moravia in the field of personal names of local Jews. Unlike the rest of the population, Jews could not freely choose any given names, as they were restricted by an official list (1788‒1867). After a short period of freedom, another list of permitted names was brought by the Nazi regime (1938). Jewish anecdotes comment on the choice, the use, and changes of names as well as on the names themselves. They represent an important historical and documentary source.
