It really is spelled _von Neumann_, named after the Hungarian-American
polymath John von Neumann. He was born (as Neumann János Lajos) into a
non-observant Jewish family, and raised, in Budapest, then in the Empire of
Austria-Hungary. His family name may be of German origin.

NOT true. Von Neumann's architecture "was based on the work of J. Presper
Eckert and John Mauchly, inventors of ENIAC and its successor, EDVAC."
ENIAC (completed in 1945) and EDVAC (completed in 1949, in operation from
1951 to 1962) were "programmable, electronic, general-purpose digital
computers". They were NOT based on or copies of the Z series of computers
as invented and built by Konrad Zuse; the first computer of that series that
was fully digital was the Z5, ordered in 1950 and delivered in 1953:

Cite evidence.
