If I had one guess, it must be Severino.

I'm thinking it's not Zeferino because all the spelling variations have the same FR in them.  I've seen 

Sofreno

Sofrena

Sofrene

Sofrine

Sufrina 

Zafreno

Of course, like every name, they can all be used by Jews.

Oh yea, I just remembered, a variant spelling for Zeferino is Severino and that's almost a perfect match to your Anglicized version.
