| VÁZQUEZ
Spanish patronymic surname meaning “son of Vasco,” derived from the medieval given name Vasco, itself associated with Basque origins. The name appears in Iberian records prior to the colonial period and spread widely to the Americas through Spanish migration during the colonial era. As with many Iberian surnames, its presence alone does not indicate Jewish ancestry, but individuals bearing this name appear in historical contexts associated with converso and crypto-Jewish communities. |
