Re: Meaning of Portuguese name 'Medieros'
i actually have a friend who is "de souza".
although in its origin the name is portuguese, it was made popular with the colonization of india. it is still a relatively common name with portuguese-indians.
in portugal, however,the unaltered "de souza" is a somewhat rare name. the version "de sousa", on the other hand, is very common.
