I thought it could be part of his name but it was written as if it were 
unimportant.

Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: God parents ? Ginetes 1667

 

Rick,

 

Manuel Alvares Homem.

 

Homem is a surname, in this case. Homem means "man" in portuguese and sometimes 
when the priest lists the godparents he uses to mention if they are married, 
and then he writes "homem casado" (married man) or simply "casado" just after 
the name of the godparent. So, be aware, this can lead to some confusion.

 

Manoel

I read the God parents as Manuel Alveres  ?   and Rodrigo Gonsalves. There is a 
word between the two names “home” which I do not understand.
