Meaning and background
The story behind Cedeno
Cedeno often appears as the unaccented spelling of the Hispanic surname Cedeño. A surname dictionary traces that form to Spanish Sedeño, connected with the word for silk or silken material. The missing tilde may simply reflect how names are written in another language or database. That makes a plausible family-name explanation, not proof that every Cedeno was intended to mean silk.
