Pam,
I know that there are some from Pico and Flores who used Bicho (also spelled Bixo).
Surely it's an alcunha.

Okay I asked a fellow researcher awhile back and she said it meant smelly fish. Why would someone use that as a surnmae? Is it a cunha? Why would they use their real surname of Medeiros and sometimes use Bischo/Bisho?
