    My last name is naturally from spain. It first was written like "Ciurana". The first person who brought it to PR was my father's great grandfather. The first person to have this name was "Heraldica Ciurana". When my father's grandfather came to PR he changed his name from Ciurana to Siurano and that's how it spread out through the family.
