The surname Castellano has both Spanish and Italian origins. In Spain the name is of
geographical origins and is associated with someone from Castile. In modern times this
would encompass the region of Castilla y Leon where the province of Salamanca resides.
The Italian origins similar to the Spanish can be associated with an area or town in Italy
or it might be connected to someone who lived or worked in a castle.
Good luck in your search!
