Yair Netanyahu Changes Name to Yonatan Hon, Tax Records Show
Yair Netanyahu, the eldest son of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has legally changed his name to Yonatan Hon. This was reported on July 8, 2026, by the newspaper Haaretz, which obtained tax authority documents confirming the name change under the same identification number. The change reportedly took place over the past year and a half. Tax deduction approvals issued at the end of 2024 still bear the name Yair Netanyahu, while those for the current year show the new name Yonatan Hon, with all other identifying details remaining the same.
