I tried the query in other search engines: - Bing shows a similar carousel as Google at the top but here Arnold is the first image. - DuckDuckGo doesn't show a direct answer. First results are IMDb and Wikipedia. - Kagi is similar to DuckDuckGo, no direkt answer, IMDb and Wikipedia first. Where it gets interesting is the third result. It is a link to a Google query for the phrase: "Why doesn't Arnold Schwarzenegger s…

Schwarz is black? Google says: From Schwarzenegg + -er, literally “someone from Schwarzenegg”, referring to either of two places in Switzerland and Austria, from schwarz (“black”) + Egg (“ridge”), cognate with Ecke.
While true, it’s also true that “neger” is the German word for “negro” and the last time I was in Bavaria also a certain type of dark chocolate covered donut. I’m not sure if the word is considered outmoded or politically incorrect as it is in English.
It is. Very much so. It's the equivalent to the US "n-word".

The egg in Arnolds name is probably a Styrian-Austrian dialect variation of "Eck" which translates to "corner". In Austria there are many places ending in this egg (sometimes also only with a single "g").
So his literal name might describe somebody coming from a place called "Schwarzenegg". And Schwarzenegg would be literally "Black-Corner".

Are IMDb and Wikipedia not appropriate direct answers?
Very interesting especially since he was the leading role in that movie.
Could it be possibly because of some badly written word filter? I’m hinting at the second part of his last name. The extra “g” is there because that’s how it’s spelled in German language, and yes, the translation is what you would guess.

Searching from Belgium. Can it be region or language related?

Picture of Schwarznegger under "Robert Winley" for some reason, but that's it.
Also if you scroll down a bit more it shows not just Edward Furlong as John Connor, but also Dalton Abbott, Michael Edwards, and Marius Clarén.
Abbott and Edwards are "Old John Connor" and "Infant John Connor" on imdb, and Marius Clarén is the guy who does the voice of Connor in the German dub. I guess it's "correct" for some value of "correct", but also not really.
tl;dr: don't trust these google instant preview thingies it seems.
