Is Kaufmann a Jewish name?

I don't really care about his religion, but I met this German guy whose father is named Kaufmann. Is he Jewish

Is Kaufmann a Jewish name?
Not necessarily. Kaufmann is a typical name in several areas where German is spoken. If the name was Goldberg, on the other hand...
Reply:Yes, it sounds like a jewish name. But a man is better known by his behaviour not by names.
Reply:USUALLY IS
Reply:The name is a Jewish one but that does not necessarily mean he is Jewish. The name may have been incorporated into the family by marriage.
Reply:50/50 chance. Kaufmann is a German name, allot of German Jews before Hitler executed 98% of them.
Reply:YES
Reply:Yes. I have a jewish friend who麓s last name is Kaufmann, Joshua Kaufmann
Reply:He could be ? But Kaufmann is a GERMAN.


Names don`t always signify a religion ,,just a nationality..
Reply:The Kaufmanns I know are Catholic. I doubt that Jews came out of Palestine by that name.
Reply:his father might be, Kaufman is Jewish name but not exclusively. either way the German your dating isn't Jewish unless his mother is.
Reply:Relativity in names can be led to the holder of relgion rights or valuable or invaluable names. Kaufmann can be Jewish or German. The name is as such a name, but not all names carry the religous cult to what some belive as an honor to carry such name or what the name stands for.
Reply:no. it is not a jewish name.
Reply:maybe
