I'm using the right term here, yeah?
My family were originally Scottish Protestants, but converted to Catholicism at some point. My Anglican friend who I've known all my life actually has old records showing relatives of hers who share my surname, which is pretty crazy given that it's not really common at all.
I have Nordic blood on my mum's side. Aside from that I don't know much. I imagine it's easier for Americans.

On my mums side, Irish (Thats her), German, Italian, and I recently found out Ukrainian  On my Dads side, French (Err.... disgusting), Australian, and I think Portuguese (But I'm not sure on that one) That's all that I know of. They don't stretch back all that far neither. I'd have been kicked out of the country if the BNP got in power though... Oh, as for religion, My Mum was Catholic (Her parents are Jewis tho...), my Dad was raised as Protestent |

My mom is Argentinian, my dad is Puerto Rican, his mom (I think) is part Filipino. My grandma is Argentinian and there's French somewhere in her ancestry. My mom's dad was Spain or had family from there, I believe. My sister is half Italian.

Irish on my dad's side. People tend to assume I have Irish blood before actually knowing. I've got an "Erin Go Bragh" shirt to prove it.
On my mother's side, English. Well, mostly it seems. There's German, Dutch and other crap down the line.

Isn't it weird how we're in different times zones? Like, when you wake up, we're going to sleep. Whoa...
Great, now my head hurts.

Ruined your shot at being full blown Irish, and therefore, your chances at ascending to a powerful race of cannibal leprechuans.

My Mum's side of the family are Scottish Protestants and my Dad's side are Irish Catholics, hence why I have a very Irish surname in Burke and a predominantly Scottish first name, or so I thought until I learned that the name William is of German origin  I guess my Mum must have brainwashed me the most as a kid, because I'm protestant and consider myself Scottish, therefore unwittingly joining the "Rangers" side of the family, although I can vaguely recall my Dad trying to make be join the dark side and wear a Celtic top when I was a kid. |
