Romo Name Meaning and History

Spanish: nickname from romo ‘snub-nosed’, ‘foreshortened’ (of uncertain etymology, perhaps from Latin rhombus, itself a borrowing from Greek, with reference to the two obtuse angles of this figure)!.

Romo sounds very Italian (this is the most possible), but it could also be Spanish or Puerto Rican!. Is this your surname!? Ask your family about your heritage, maybe in the national archives you can find a family tree to help you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
