*My mother's great aunt's name was Pesia Sperber - definately not
Josefine. In the family every one called her tante Pepi.*
I think sometimes people with Jewish names took nicknames that were on one
side close to their Jewish origins but also led the public to believe they
were pure assimilated Austrians as in her case connecting to the
beloved emperor.
