I have recently had a gaining interest in finding the orgin of my name. My father was born and raised in Colombia and his father was from Venezula. However, from the information I have gathered, my last name does not have a spanish origin. As many people might realize the original spanish version of D'Leon was spelled DeLeon. After speaking with family, I have found that my ancestors were actually from Ireland. Therefore we believe the name is a translation of an originally Irish name. If anyone has any information it would be appreciated! Thanks!
