Julius Rappoport was born Isak Abramovich. It was in the 1890s that Isak Abramovich became Julius Rappoport, the name by which he would be recognised for his mastery of silverwork. His name change came after Rappoport converted from Judaism to Protestantism and joined the congregation of a German Evangelical Lutheran church in St Petersburg.
