Same here. Isn't R-L2* rather rare in Iberia?

E1b1b1a2* (E-V13)

I'm I1*. Apparently I have some odd STR markers so I'm not sure if I fall into the Norse or Anglo-Saxon groupings. I have no subclade home to call my own

I'm an R1b1b2a1a2f (R-L21). Honestly, I'm a bit surprised nobody else here shares my haplogroup. Based on my understanding, it's most common in Ireland, although my father's side identifies as German. I've heard people claim that R-L21 are Celts, although I've also seen this disputed. That said, my father looks like a prototypical Celt.

Let me just say that your Y-DNA marker makes up a very small percentage of your total DNA and it wouldn't have any effect whatsoever on phenotype - so your father's looks wouldn't have anything to do with that.

Interesting... I know embarrassingly little about genetics. While I claim Celtic heritage, I do so based on inference from my haplogroup, ancetry finder matches, and my father's appearance. Maybe I should not do so without being more certain.

I just realized there are other L21s here. I haven't gone through this entire thread, and searching for my haplogroup yielded nothing, so I mistakenly assumed I was the only one here.
