That makes a lot of sense, why didn't I realize that.
When your surname refers to the fact that you're descended from elite Jews (such as that of the Levy family), you aren't really going to want anyone taking that name who isn't Jewish, especially when your family wanted to establish a Jewish State in Florida like Moses Levy did.

Interesting. The Levy Family in particular were big players in politics in the antebellum South, all of them were (obviously) some of the most extreme defenders of slavery. Their influence only began to wane after the Civil War.
