A delighted Ivanka also shared with the public that choosing the baby’s name was a tad difficult. According to her, she had to go through the old list of names she had penned down to pick the right name for her second son.

Theodore’s birth sign is Aries. Those who believe that people’s zodiac defines their behavior would expect Theodore to be very kind, sympathetic, bold, and full of intense energy. Those qualities aren’t far from who Theodore is. When he marked his seventh birth anniversary, his mother took to Instagram to celebrate him.

He Has Jewish Heritage Thanks to his Dad

Theodore James Kushner’s maternal grandfather Donald Trump was the 45th president of the United States, and just like his granddad, he is an American citizen.

In terms of his ethnicity, Theodore is of mixed European descent and also of Jewish ancestry.

His family has Czech, German, Scottish, and Jewish roots. His maternal grandmother Ivana Marie Trump was a Czech-American woman, and his maternal grandfather Donald Trump is of German and Scottish ancestry. Theodore’s father, Jared Kushner, is Jewish. He was raised in a Morden Orthodox Jewish family. According to reports, his paternal grandparents were Holocaust survivors who came to the United States in 1949 from Navahrudak, a town you would find in the Grodon region of Belarus.

Because of the differences in family background, Theodore James Kushner’s parents almost didn’t end up together. His mother, Ivanka, was raised a Presbyterian Christian.
