I think the problem is how the names are generated, not the names that are in the files. If you look at the files themselves, there is a diversity of names therein, Jewish and otherwise. I'm sure that the files could be improved, but my understanding is that census records were used to determine which names should be included. It appears to me that the algorithm used to create full names is not up to the task of retrieving and pairing first and last names in a way that captures reality. But this is not a criticism, really: when you think of where the development effort has been focused, I'm sure it's been mostly preoccupied with getting the gameplay and AI working correctly.
