Aryan is strongly dominant in him anyway. There is something French about him as well, hence an extremely grace look...

His real name is Philippe Pagès. He's from Paris but his surname originates from southern/southwestern France.

why did he choose a germanic surname?

Maybe because he has a german face

why did he choose a germanic surname?

More exactly: the stage name "Clayderman" sounds like a German surname ("Kleidermann") with a bogus Anglicized, i.e. Yiddisch/American spelling.

(you know, 'Shoemaker' for 'Schuhmacher', 'Bloomingdale' for 'Blumental', 'Silverstone' for 'Silberstein' etc.)

Obviously Clayderman deliberately played the Ashkenazi card (in France it works at least as good as in the U.S. of A.) when choosing that surname, in order to enjoy a high media support.

It's funny that media response was just as enthusiastic as if he had really been a Jew...

That's the way it goes. In France or in the U.S.
