ArchivesRe: Brasilian or Portugues surnames
in reply to a message by Agostinho Motta
Not knowing much Spanish or any Portuguese, I would try these guesses:
CAETANO: = Kajetan / Kayetan > from the city of Geata / Caieta
COELO: from Latin "coelum / caelum" (sky / heaven)
COSTINHO: from Greek Costa > Konstantin
MAGALHAES: from Magalit > Margareta
SALAZAR: something with "salt"
VENTURA: something with "wind"
