Unintentional Fair Housing Guffaws

What are some mistakes a well meaning person can make when it comes to Fair Housing? I don’t mean the obviously egregious ones. But things like, “Oh, that’s an interesting name. What nationality is it?” We can’t say that! Or you have a two bedroom home and 2 women, a 7 yo girl and an uncle want to move in and you know you can’t say, “But who is sleeping with whom? It’s only two bedrooms!” I did have that scenario and knew I better show them the house anyway. None of my business. They were no shows. But what other ways can we unwittingly get ourselves in trouble?
