Or even names like Beaumarchais, Radziwell, or Azóla, French, Lithuanian and Portuguese.

I admit, in one of my projects, I do have a Jewish doctor, but I did do some work to make him a bit more unique.

1. He's Sephardic. Yemenite, to be exact.

2. He was interested in science but is a trained sniper as well.

3. He's gay and married to a wonderful fellow soldier.

4. Although actively Conservative Jewish, he's also obsessed with sports and the New York Yankees.

5. He went into medicine out of sincere conviction to help immigrant refugees like his parents.

So I feel slightly better about promoting stereotypes.
