It is very difficult to tell what a Jewish last name is. When the dominant group of Jewish immigrants came from Europe, they shared many common surnames, such as Levine or Goldberg. But these days, Jews come from just about everywhere (Michelle Obama's cousin is a Jew, and a rabbi). Also, many last names are still being shortened or even changed: movie stars of all religions often do this, but so do ordinary citizens who feel their name is too hard to spell or pronounce. As a result, it is difficult to determine just from a last name if the person is Jewish, or even if that was their original last name.
