They may have anglicized their names a bit, and they may not be pronounced in an Italian way, but they are still easily recognizable as Italian surnames, and they don't deny their Italian ancestry. WW2 era was after a lot of Italian and German immigration had already happened. Some people probably did change their names over that.

Here's a blog entry about a German who's family immigrated in the mid-1800's, that changed names after WW1.
