Shrug. I don't know any Jewish names, besides it wouldn't matter. As you - or someone - said, it wasn't about the race it was the nationality. The joke, such as it was, would have worked equally with or without the Spanish name.

Roll on summer!

Lol, last year we also had to go to Ireland and stay there for 8 days. But not in a big city like Dublin. We were going to stay in Bray, I think. Unfortunately COVID spoiled everything.

If you were older I'd say I'd love to meet up, but a 14-year old Spanish girl and a 58-year old Irish guy? You don't need your maths thread to work out the equation there, and it certainly ends with me squirming very uncomfortably in a police station...

Cop 1: "So, you KNEW she was 14, huh?"
Me: "Um, yeah..."
Cop 1: "And you posed as a 14-year old?"
Me: "No, I didn't. She knew I was 58."
Cop 2: "And you were going to talk to her about MUSIC?"
Me: "Yeah."
Cop 1: "You expect us to believe that?"
Cop 2: "You disgust me."
Cop 3: "Anyone want coffee?"
Cops 1 and 2: "NO! GTFO!"
Cop 1: "Now, where were we?"
Me: "Look, she just asked about music recommendations on this site..."
Cop 2: "Music eh?"
Cop 1: "Bet you thought you'd make sweet music with her eh?"
Me: "No. I just wanted to see her. And then there was this maths thing..."
Cop 2: "Maths?!! My father was shot by a maths teacher!"
Cop 1: "You're going DOWN, scumbag!"

Yeah, just not worth it. Send me a postcard maybe. Much safer.
