What's with the apparent typo nombre de familia?  Some Canary Islands thingy?

It's simply that he has a career in video, Gamez.

Yi was expecting "Gomez" rather than "Gamez".

Ah, yeah story of my life....

Yi my last name is apparently the Spanish translation of Gamiz which was a little village in Basque country.

Just 2%? I probably out-basque you man.

I regretted as soon as I was waiting for the results because after all giving your dna to a company isn't really something we should do.

Anyway her are the results. I was expecting some trace from the Balkans but got British/Irish instead. Still wondering who brought that in the family. The real surprise is that they list Bern as my Swiss origin.

Italian (Emilia-Romagna)      44.7
Spanish/Portuguese         2.6
Broadly Southern European      7.7

French/German    (Bern)      28.5
British/Irish            4.9
Scandinavian            0.5
Broadly Northwestern European   8.2

Broadly European         2.9
Unassigned            0.2

Hey Caliga, ancestry is again updating their testing results.

Thanks buddy, I'll take a look.

[Caliga]

Still wrong (says I'm 58% English), but getting better.

[Caliga]

Interesting... and now it thinks my wife is 12% Vietnamese.

I'm like Kaeso, I don't like giving my DNA to some company out there, but I think I'll try it anyway, in time for Christmas.
