and many give the Yiddish names because in todays frum world they are absolutely acceptable and used. NO need to change. BTW no one speaks the lashon kodesh we spoke in Mitzrayim Ivrit or Ivris is not lashon Kodesh and many hold that Yiddish, by its very name is part of not changing our language. Rav Oshry ztl (Teshuvos Mimamakim) said that yiddish is the ONLY language that announces by it’s’ name that it sis for Yidden even though it is a mixture of many. ( Yidden DO have a specail affinity for cholent!!!)
