5th generation Aussie.
Beyond that a bit of a mix, with ancestry back to the battle of hastings in 1066. Once you start to look into the different names (great grandparents, etc) it get complicated.

French, Iranian, Spanish and Torres Strait Islands. On the Spanish side, apparently they were pirates in the 1700s or something...
My partner's Mum is from Ireland and his Dad is from Jordan (both been in Aus for about 25 years). So our son Toby is a real mixture.
