ArchivesRe: Where does Simon and Jimeno are related?
in reply to a message by John10
Jimena is the feminine variation of Jimeno. Jimeno itself is a Spanish variation of Ximeno, which is the Basque version of Simon. However, Ximena and Ximeno are also used in Spanish-speaking areas, and this is where the surname Jiménez/Ximénez comes from.
