Well, I don't watch soaps (...except for Coronation Street!!!---)

---

I really don't think the shared name matters a bit in this case.

---

-Why not?

---

Because...

---

A: Currently, only a percentage of individuals you (or this child) will encounter in life will know about this soap character/talk show host's hubby.

---

B:On the show that character will inevitably...

1.Be kidnapped by an evil twin
2.Die in a fiery crash
3.Be shot to death by an obsessed stalker
4.Disappear somewhere over the Bermuda Triangle
5.Get a sex change and become Matea

---

(...or all of the above! :P )

---

At any rate, "Mateo Santos" will be long forgotten when the character is written out of the script.
Trust me!

---

--The fruit of your womb, however,
will exude such wonderful influence in the lives of friends, loved ones and co-workers, the name will soon become synonymous with one character and one character only
...Your future son!

---

That said,
in the event pop-culture has ruined the name for you,
go ahead and combine Mateo with an english name from your list.
It is such a gorgeous name, and will flow with almost anything, in my opinion...

---

Here are some I personally love:

---

Mateo Sebastian Santos
Mateo Jude Santos
Mateo Elijah Santos

---

*I could list all day...it is just such a gorgeous name.
I have that name on my own fave. list, but alas...
my babies are so fair haired/fair skinned they are almost albino!
If they had dark hair,or a more exotic heritage I would have loved to use that name.
...to me, is just a name way more suited to a person with brown or black hair(*I feel the same about the name Luca ).

---

****Oh yes!
BTW,
I too, appreciated your response to MY comments!
Have a GREAT day!!
