Yes Jim, but he only adopted "Handl" or almost certainly "Händl", a shortening of Händler meaning "dealer" in later life. "Handl" may refer to a cockerel but it is also a Czech word for "trade" but as German was the language of the Viennese overlords it was almost certainly "Händl. He was born in Southern Slovenija. "Gallus gallus" is a type of chicken, "Gallus" being Latin for "cockerel". He definitely used the name "Gallus" often with suffix "Carniolus for all of his early life. Why, possibly the adoption of Handl or Händl as an alternative name we don't know. Certainly, the Latin form would have been used by those in church circles of Austria, Čechy, Morava and Silesia with whom he associated all of his life. Although he never used the name, he is also known in Slovenija as Jakob Petelin Kranjski meaning "Jacob, the rooster of Carniola". Gallus is the dominant name throughout his life.
@@terryhoath1983while that’s true , it is likely that „Handl“ was his original name , pointing to his German ( Austro-Bavarian ) ethnicity . Throughout the Renaissance and early Baroque age poets, composers and „men of learning“ adopted Latin and Greek surnames under the influence of Humanism . Examples are Philipp Melanchthon ( born Philipp Schwarzerd ), Alexander Agricola ( born Alexander Ackermann ), Paracelsus ( von Hohenheim) and others. So it was certainly not the case that he was born with the name Gallus and adopted Handl, but the other way round .
