Meaning and background
The story behind Vigo
Vigo is a Galician habitational surname from places of that name. The dictionary highlights the city in Pontevedra province but does not restrict the surname to that city alone. It traces the place-name word for village to Latin vicus. This provides a clear settlement-based history for the spelling, while a family connection may point to any of several documented Vigos rather than the best-known modern city.
