Some communities that use Simantov as a male name also use Mazaltov but as a female name.
Sometimes, the clerks who gave the famous four surnames of Gross, Klein, Weiss and Schwartz to Jews throughout the historical Austro-Hungarian Empire davka assigned them to people in a way that was mocking. This was just as much a way to attempt to solicit a bribe as it was anti-Semitism.
