Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone knows what the name "Ezaltina"
means, and how far it dates back. I'm really just curious.
Just in case, I'm not 100% sure this is actually a Portuguese name. I
recently found a previously unknown child who died at one month of my
great great grandparents, Manuel J Medeiros Quarenta and Filomena Gloria
Rego. The baby was Ezaltina. The baby was born in 1909 after the parents
had been in America for three years, so maybe they heard the name over
here? I searched the group and only found one mention of an Ezaltina
born on one of the islands.
Ironically, she was the first and only (so far) girl they had not named
Maria.
I was wondering, if anyone is familiar with this name, is it usually a
stand alone, or does it follow Maria i.e. Maria Ezaltina. Obviously,
anything is possible, but I just found it funny that this family with
their eight daughters named Maria would change their minds.
