Anything distinctly "black" (I use quotes because nobody has been able to tell me what country, language or dialect Shaniqua comes from. I think someone spilled a box of Scrabble peices an somehow managed to pronounce what came out.)
Anything distinctly Hispanic
Anything distinctly Arabic
The first is more or less proven, the second and third are just assumed.
I wouldn't assume anything. We live in a time when seemingly absurd names are not only accepted but sought as though there is some prize for coming up with the most bazaar title for a child.
Granted, it's usually by parents who can afford to buy their child's acceptance and popularity, but the spin off that happens in the real world where kids actually have to grow up and live 'normal' lives with these ridiculous names - it's almost criminal.
