Have you ever been confused for a different ethnicity? If so, what ethnicity were you mistaken for?

Been mistaken for Somali, Tamil, Nigerian (by people who can't differentiate between blacks), Sudanese and Aboriginal (I think that was an insult)

Indian i've also been called sudanese and eritrian. Most people don't know what somalis looks like so they assume your ethnicity based on what they see around them. Funnily enough i'm lighter than a number of indians in my region.

I sometimes laugh out loud when arabs talk in front of me in arabic and then they ask me what's my name. Their shocked faces when they hear my muslim name is priceless.
