Isn't that something like "head of the cow" ? Just some trivia from
Southwest History I seem to recall.

Pardon me, my use of Spanish is very limited but I do know the translation
of
"Vaca" and do you really want to use that as a last name?

I don't know what the first word translates too and would hate to butcher
the
pronounciation of it so maybe it makes sense with that part in it.
