Was this an American movie? There are more Americans of German descent than any other European nationality (if one separates out the Scots and Welsh from the English :)), so you can make no assumptions about an American's given name being "German" just because his surname is.

Remember that the American President with the most "Germanic" surname, Dwight Eisenhower, had a given name that was definitely not German.
