If it is a rebrand, acquisition, merger, etc., our recommended approach is to use the old name as matchNames, e.g.:

Suggested change
"id": "dbinfrago-9c1a6c",
"id": "dbinfrago-9c1a6c",
"matchNames": ["DB Netz AG", "DB Station&Service AG"],

Of course, this also depends on the specific brand changes, so it is not mandatory

There will be a mechanical edit in the next weeks. The old values will disappear. Therefore, I do not see any need in keeping old names.

Please consider also removing the legal form from the name and/or operator value as discussed in the OSM forum.
