??origin of the surname "Markesinis"
Iam looking for the origin of my surname.."Markesinis". We are Greek by at least a few generations, but the name itself does not sound all that Greek. Could it possibly have a Latin origin?..anyway if anyone has any information, please contact myself on the above E-mail address..PS.. Markesinis is spelt in Greek by substituting the English letters for corresponding Greek sounding letters pronounced = Mar-ke-si-nis
thank you.....

It is funny but this surname sounds almost exactly as an italian surname MARCHESINI, a variant of MARCHESI, that is "MARQUIS"
