Re: do you know the meaning of Acosta ??
in reply to a message by Nadal
According to Hanks & Hodges' A Dictionary of Surnames, Acosta is normally a Spanish or Portuguese surname for someone who lived on a hillside or near the coast, and comes from a misdivision of the original Portuguese "Da Costa" into "D'Acosta".
