Question:

I'm looking for the origin of the surname MONTECINO can anyone help?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: It's sound italian but there is no exact surname in Ethomology

so lets take Monte first part of the name is derived from

Monti
Usage: Italian
Extra: Statistics
Means "mountain, hill" in Italian.



Cino
Usage: Italian

Derived from the first name Cino, a short form of names ending in Cino


So i would say that Montecino means the Cino's of the hill or mountains in Italy.
