It’s like other Spanish/german names that mixed with the Cajuns in the 1800s (Miguez, Ramirez, Hymel, Toups, Waguespack, etc)

Do you personally know someone or used to know someone from all 20 surnames on the list?
I’m 18-20. Don’t personally know a Thibodeaux or a Benoit.
Know one ? I’ve banged a female with all 20 of those surnames.

Well one of the names is common especially around is Romero. That’s Spanish which settled in New Iberia and came from the Iberia Peninsula in Spain

Romero is a Spanish surname that’s popular in cajun country.
Well Cajun "French" does contain some Spanish. My grandmother was a Romero from New \Iberia.

I legit know a Romero with NI haircut.

There's also some Filipino blood thanks to the Spanish trade route that went from Manila across Mexico to Louisiana and then to Spain.
