His great-grandfather was Pennsylvania Dutch (German), which is where the surname comes from.

I guess his father’s middle name, “Ezra”, might sound Jewish today, though it wasn’t out of place among non-Jews 100 years ago (and relatively rare among Jews then).

Speaking of Ezras, how cool is the cast of this new movie The Perks of Being a Wallflower? Logan Lerman, Paul Rudd, Ezra Miller… a lot of Jewish actors in one film (well, this Ezra is a halfsie). I do love getting off topic…
