GodinezPatronymic name, derived from the name Godoy, and because of this there is not any relationship of parentage between the different lineages with the same designation.The name Godinez originated from the regions of Galice and Salamanca, Spain.
The name Godinez has ancient Germanic language root;"Godinus" that means "Godo", (Visigothic God).
The oldest and primary ancestors resided in La Coruña, Lugo, Orense, Santiago de Compostela, Pontevedra, Bejar, Peñarada de Bracamonte, Salamanca and Vitigudino, later on extended to the entire Iberian Peninsula.Although the name Godinez is not so common, it proved its nobility in different eras as member of several Military and Chivalry Orders from Spain.
The name was brought to America during the colonization era, and it widely spread all over the continent.
