I think the lad on the left has a very Irish look imo, so does the middle one too

Pass for Gheg Albanians (famous overlap of Keltics and Dinarids), especially middle boy and a girl. Left one passes for a Slav in Balkan and central European context. He could be German too.

Thanks, Unfortunately i couldn't get hold of names but the guy on the left gives off a cheeky Irish vibe, there are actually quite a few eastern Europeans in Ireland who can look surprisingly similar to the Irish so it wouldn't surprise me if he is an immigrant. I would say the middle one could only be Irish, i haven't seen others that look like him, right girl is very generic, could be Spanish.

I suppose KNs and Dinarids/Norics can look alike. But they look very Irish to me all the same.

I don't think the girl is Irish.

Very good! Perfect fit for Romanians in Transylvania as well... But I may differ a little:

- left: mainly ENF-derived CM (Sardinia, Greece, Spain, Turkey)
- middle: Aryan + Dinaric
- right: Alpine (fitting from Spain to Armenia)

The middle one is definitely Irish. Can tell by looking at him. I would like clarification for the other two though. The boy possibly but the girl not the typical Irish girl that's for sure.

Just as an example a camogie team from Carlow.
