Nava Explanation: Your family name remains Nava in English. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 23 mins (2004-03-28 01:53:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I\'m really not sure what you needed to know here, but \"Nava\" is a fairly common Spanish surname. You might research it on the net, I\'m sure there is a lot of information. I have known people of Mexican origin with that name. |
