Yes.

It was changed when my 7-year-old great grandfather was sent to school with the dozens of other immigrants from the tenement building. He spoke his name, the German school administrator wrote what he heard, and that was it.

There are 2 other super-similar names that I assume are related, but without DNA, I can't prove it. I am the family genealogist, so I'm never done researching.
