I understand, I got the "Wilson doesn't sound  Mexican/Latino/Hispanic"
or 
"You don't look Mexican" thing a lot growing up in  Los Angeles,
California, and 
having Mexican Tia and cousins - but  Aniba is a Spanish surname.  My
Mom was 
Spanish/Scots/Dutch/German-Jew	mix, mostly Spanish.  Maybe if I had my 
father's swarthy skin tones  (Cherokee-Irish-French) I wouldn't have
heard it so 
much.  Frits with a "S"  - Dutch.  I'll try and keep that in mind.  And
not typo 
the close-by  "z" when I reach for an "s".
