Maria Isolation or Isolation (mod spelling) is a pretty common name. Maybe the American influence dropped the Maria. Sent on the Sprint® Now Network from my BlackBerry®

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. -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.
