Can I be considered a Euromutt when my ancestors come from just two (closely related) regions? They came from Southwest Germany and England. I get South Dutch because it is a good middle point. I think I get lower distances than many Europeans, despite being American. For this reason, and because those two populations are so closely related, I do not think I can be considered a Euromutt.


What exactly is a Euromutt?

So, Euromutt? or something else?

I take being a Euromutt as a compliment. People from the lower classes tend to be only one kind of thing. Like pure Irish, pure German. At least here in the states, it means you're an ethnic. In my neck of the woods, most people are a blend of things, and they look more Aristocratic , in general.

Nobody said it was a good or bad thing. Why did you thumbs me down bud? Oh that was Heather LOL

Yes what you said kind of makes sense. Maybe I am of lower class. German American city workers and English descended Hillbillies. All of whom left Europe because they were poor

Dutch and Germans are very closely related. I consider Euromutt to be a German mixed with a Spainard and an Irishman or something. I wouldn't really worry about it either way.

I assumed Euromutts were heavily mixed, like 5 different Euro populations or something.

Not really Euromutt in a general sense, but of German and English extraction. Not really what I consider a Euromutt.

Euromutt denotes peoples of two or more European ancestries. Genetically speaking, its true that Europeans are quite close genetically speaking, but its merely a term to denote a person of mixed European ancestries. Europeans mostly identify by their nationality of birth rather than being "white" which is a New World neologism/creation.

North-West European is a more suitable term for you.

Well it seems most Europeans would be euro mutts than. Most Europeans aren't 100% of anything.

Aye, you'd be a mutt. German English seems typical White American.

I think the term Euromutt comes from Americans being a melting pot compared to Europeans who are less mixed

Yes I think so. Especially in the Midwest and Pennsylvania.

Most typical American white in terms of most areas of the U.S. is someone who is predominantly of English and German ancestry, but who may have smaller amounts of Italian, French, Spanish, and Irish ancestry. Of course, in much of the Northeast United States, this is different, but elsewhere in the U.S., it largely falls in some variant of these lines.
