The Romani people are also known by a variety of other names, in English as Roma, Gypsies, or Travellers, historically also as "tinkers" from their common occupation as tinsmiths. In Central and Eastern Europe as Tsigani (and variants), in France as gitans besides the dated bohémiens and manouches. Self-designation also varies: In Central and Eastern Europe, Roma is common. The Romani of England call themselves (in Angloromani) Romanichal, those of Scandinavia (in Scandoromani) Romanisæl. In German-speaking Europe, the self-designation is Sinti, in France Manush, while the groups of Spain, Wales and Finland use Kalo/Kale (from kalo meaning "black"). There are numerous subgroups and clans with their own self-designations, such as the Kalderash, Machvaya, Boyash, Lovari, Modyar, Xoraxai, Lăutari, etc. From Wikipedia under the

Most of your so called similarities are rubbish 01: There is no requirement for removing shoes when entering the house of a deceased family member. Nor has there ever been. 04: There is no such belief in Judaism. Lillith was a creation of the the century which has absolutely nothing to do with Judaism 05: There are no prohibitions against eating meat on the same day as fish. In fact it has always been traditional to eat fish as a started before many meat meals. 06: Christians. Muslims and others also speak of elijah- that is a meaningless connection.
