Surname

In Greek, the word avrakotos is a masculine adjective meaning without underpants. I once met a young Greek-American woman who told me her grandfather's surname was recorded as Boulis (mama's boy) when he entered the U.S.; apparently, he was being heckled by other Greek immigrants travelling with him and for some reason, an immigration official took this to be his surname. Perhaps something similar happened to Mr. Avrakotos's father. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.23.134.113 (talk) 06:21, 24 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Greek-American--Infobox

Is there a reason that his ethnicity be mentioned in the infobox? Becuase I think we are just being selective here by doing so since his ethnicity is not much relevant to what he is known for. Therefore, I will remove, but please let me know if you disagree. -- And Rew 04:00, 6 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Haven't taken a look at this article in a while, but I totally agree with you. Thanks.
