Answer 5

Names do not have nationalities.  

Many names *MAY* be associated with one country or origin, but the fact is that many can come from different places. Not just one.  Occasionally.. a last name as known today, is actually a variation of another original name.

You can find factual records as to where your ancestors were born (lived).
