Abstract
Millions of Germans have emigrated to North America over the past few centuries. They started a new life, often with a new name. This article focuses on emigrants to the North American region of what is now the United States and asks: When did they change their names? What were the reasons for or against it? Did the linguistic structure of the German name play a role in the change? How can name changes be reconstructed and studied today? This article seeks answers, reviews existing research, presents some new findings, and encourages further research.
