Um I think I'm 1/8 Greek, 1/16 Scottish, I know there is Welsh thrown in. Native American thrown in. One of the signers of the Declaration of Independance in there (by adoption though). I'm pretty sure there's some French and German. I'm sure there's lots more too that I don't know about. I'm pretty mixed up though...

It's kinda funny, my family took a trip to Scottland 2 years ago to celebrate our heritage. At the time I didn't really know about the Greek, I was shocked that I was as much as 1/16 anything! :o So I bought a kilt and celebrated decending from the Calhoun clan as if I was a full blood Scott! :lol:

My mother's side is almost entirely German, with just a skosh of French and Belgian mixed in.

My father's side is mostly Scot (I'm a member of the Clan McLeod society in the states), with a bit of Irish, English, and French.

So, I'm pasty.

Lots of Irish, from both sides, 1/4 Finnish (the only one I know the exact amount for, my grandfather's completely Finnish =P), a little bit of English, and a little bit of German.

I think that's it. Don't know for sure. The German is minimal, I'm not sure about the English...I have a very small bit from my mum's side, and more from my dad's...I know my last name is English, I just dunno how far back.

...Overall, that just seems to make me absurdly pale. Go me. =P

I was born in Scotland and I still live there so I am Scottish (NOT British!). My mum is 3/4 Irish (mum fully irish and her dad 1/2 Irish I think) but moved to Scotland when she was really young and my dad's family has always lived in Scotland.

My mom's side of the family is all Slovenijan (my grandparents moved here about 31 years ago from Slovenija).
On my dad's side there's a mix of different European countries, mostly Ukranian though. From what I remember my dad's dad had about 7 different backgrounds when you trace it back.

I'm English, but my family from years ago came from Italy, but I doubt that counts. :/

I was born in the US, but I have a bunch of ethnicities: English, Irish, Welsh, Polish, Dutch, Indian and whoever else was there. :lol:

My Father was Italian and my Mom is a second generation Canadian on her mothers side by, but on my Grandpas side we can trace it back to the original settlement of Trois Rivieres.

My mom's Danish and my dad is Pakistani. My roots trace back to Saudia Arabia. It's odd really.

But I'm Canadian. Eh.

OMGyouguysareFinnishorpartlyFinnish! Homeofratherunfamiliarnouncases! That'ssoFinni-EstonicallynonIndo-Europeanlyawesome!

Both my parents are Chinese. Dad's from Shen'yang, Mom's from Xi'an, and romanizing placenames is a pain in the butt because no one's consistent. Both speak like CCTV reporters without the goofy tonecolour, so I know of no regional dialects. [Not that my Mandarin is up to par..]
