Re: well if he's named Jacinto Correa, maybe the wife is Carlos Anaissi? :D
According to what I know of Spanish-language naming practices, Jacinto is his first name, Carlos is his second name, and Correa and Anaissi will be the surnames of his mother and father - the order of which is which varies from country to country. Given that he uses Jacinto Correa as his contracted name, Correa is probably his father's surname. :)

I think Ivayla is right and Also, surnames do not vary order, in Spanish. they always stick to Father's family name first, mother's family name second.(n/m)
