My dad's family was actually one of the first Jewish families to settle in Pennsylvania, perhaps in the US. Came over from the Polish Commonwealth (such as it was) in the eighteenth century, although their name is Dutch, indicating that they likely fled the Netherlands during the Reformation.

one branch of my family (the Fogels) came over here long enough to have a couple towns named after them.
The branch I am more immediately descended from are descendents of my great....times four, I think, grandfather, who I don't know much about beyond that he was a colonial soldier and thus probably a dick. Also the only other Nathan in the family besides myself.
I actually do wonder why he was named that since Nathan is a Jewish name primarily, and while there is some evidence we're related to the Jewish Aumanns distantly, it's not nearly close enough that that'd be a factor.
Amharic and Tigrinya are the main modern Ethiopian dialects. Ge'ez is kind of like Church Latin or Biblical Hebrew. Somali is pretty common there, too.
I realize names of kings are not necessarily representatives of common folks, but it seems like a lot of names that Ethiopian Emperors took were derived from Greek names.
Maybe "Powell" comes from a form of "Pavlos" (itself the name from which "Paul" derives)?
That is a complete guess and I am not a linguist, just saying, it could be, hypothetically.

I think the DC fans would actually like that. From what I've seen, DC fans would rather see more of either Kyle Rayner or the DCAU's take on John Stewart. The ones with the unhealthy fixation on Hal Jordan are the DC writers and editors.

Introducing the newest and most important weapon in Batman's arsenal: the bat-gun. It shoots bat-bullets. They're exactly the same as regular bullets, except they have Batman's logo etched into the side.
Thomas and Marth Wayne come back from the dead. This helps Bruce get over his inner demons and retire from vigilantism. From now on, the comics are about the day-to-day minutia of managing WayneCorp.

Allegedly, an ancestor of mine, but any family tree that goes back to the 1300s is dubious by default.
Everyone on that side of the family seems to believe it though.
None of the other guys I'm related to are notable enough to have paintings of them floating around on the internet.
Some people I'm related to are! My aunt (by marriage, Donna Fogel) is the CFO of a credit union (a shitty one, google PPL Gold).
I'd talk badly about her, but I get the feeling that Donna actually would share some of her money with us if her husband weren't such a prick.
he sends me christmas cards... FROM HELL
you could be related to Millard Filmore

we call them the outcasts and place them in boxes. Some literal, some figurative.

I should get to bed anyway I suppose.
I don't know jack anything about Ethiopian, so that's just a guess, but it seems probable.
My own surname has a million different variations (Auman, Euman, Aumen, Aumensberg, etc.) without the interference of anyone else.
my bad
I'm pretty sure it's illegal for ferrets to be ninja.
