Lily Adams?

Russian sounding names aren't too popular the last few weeks.

Well she might not be that Slavic, considering her name is 99% certainly a transliteration from the Russian of their transliteration of Weintraub making her German or/and Jewish.

According to her IMDb bio, she is from Uzbekistan.

Actually, there's nothing wrong with WASPy names.

Admit it - if you didn't know her real name, you would never doubt that it could be Lily Adams.

Its not like she speaks with an accent on the commercials.

In the kingdom of the blind, you're the village idiot.

That doesn't mean she is not Jewish or Russian. There was a rather large ethnic Russian population in Uzbekistan. Also, Uzbekistan (and Tashkent in particular) had the largest population of Jews in Central Asia. Many of these Jews were more likely to have Russian names than Uzbek ones. If they came from European Russia across the Urals rather north from Persia or the middle East, they were likely to have Yiddish names. Like Vayntrub, which was probably Weintrub in German but then transliterated into Cyrillic for Russian and than transliterated back into the Latin alphabet for English.

That's right. She's a Jew from Tashkent. I went to Sabbath school with a pair of twins name Weintraub, which is probably her family's original German name. Like my family, hers probably migrated from German-speaking areas east into the Slavic areas during the MIddle Ages along with many other German-speaking people, but unlike my family didn't get out of Russia before Stalin, who banished a large population of Jews to central Asia.

She came to America when she was 2 and has been working with an accent coach since. Great job
