Simply knowing a last name will tell you nothing about "how German" you are, even though Geyer is a Germanic name.

You got the Geyer surname from your father, and he got it from his, etc., but you could still have an Asian mother, an Italian grandmother, a native American great grandmother, a French great great grandmother, and so have very little actual German ancestry compared to other ancestry.

How "German" you are is more realistically indicated by how much you participate in German cultural and ethnic activities, and has nothing to do with your surname.
