The Reformation.

In the late 1400s/early 1500s Reformation came about. This is when Catholiscm stopped being the only type of Christianity. Mary wasn't as revered as much, she was actually made to be "human." (As the Baptist believe, she had other children after Jesus) So Mary was looked upon with respect, but she was no longer "holy."

Jesus has always been holy, which is the reason the name was never allowed.

Does this make sense?
