Looking at the other records, the non-use of the word 'legitimo', does not appear to mean anything. It's just the format they use. Neto in this case is not part of the name, it means grandchild=grandson.Sachinha is undoubtedly a nickname that means hoe, as in the tool that turns the soil.

This nickname is still currently used in Rosario.
