His surname looks it, and he is of Calabrese origin.

To me he looks Cretan or like someone from Lakonia.

I thought he was Greek because I kept mishearing his name as Geropoulos, as I didn't know there was a Calabrese equivalent.

Since surnames only existed for 500 years or so, I'd suspect recent Greek ancestry in southern Italians with clearly Greek surnames; probably Ottoman refugees.

Probably but I would guess him as Serb before Cretan.
