I don't see how it's any different from calling Russians "Ivan" of Germans "Fritz". It's not a nice thing to do but I'd place it pretty far down on the racism scale tbh.

Ivan or Fritz are real names/surnames from those countries which have completely different meaning now compared to how they were used in wars. Pajeet is a made up name only used so far to hate on Indians/ South Asians.

TIL it's not even a real name

Nope. Closest I can think of are Prajyot and Pradeep.

It does look a lot like Paget, which is a French name pronounced differently
