I find these Yiddish-centric criticisms amusing. What is particularly Jewish about Beryl, Muttle, Shmeel, Gittel, Heshy, Elka, etc ? You can not find them anywhere in Tanach and did not exist before the Middle Ages. I can picture Rashi in 1100 saying what kind of name for a Jewish girl is Shprintzer?
