Subject: RE: BS: Are there any English-Americans?
Some Amish refer to any non-Amish person as "English".

Some Hispanics refer to any white person as "Anglo".

White people who exhibit certain characteristics are sometimes referred to as "WASPs" (acronym for "White Anglo-Saxon Protestant").

All the above are based on perceived English heritage though, in fact, they're as likely to be applied to just about any white person.
