Yair Netanyahu, the son of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has changed his name to Yonatan Hon, Haaretz reported on Wednesday.
The Israeli newspaper said tax-withholding approvals issued in December 2024 carried his previous name, Yair Netanyahu.
This year, the same identifying details appeared under the new name, including a fictional address listed as "Balfour 0".
Yair Netanyahu has used a similar surname before. On social media, he previously identified himself as "Yair Hoon". Hoon was the original surname of his mother Sara’s father, Shmuel, before the family changed it to Ben Artzi.
The reported name change comes as the Netanyahu family name faces growing political and legal complications, internationally and in the United States.
