Likely should be Nuñez. Surname of Spanish origin & common in Latin America, Portugal & Spain. Guess his ancestors didn't come on Mayflower.https://twitter.com/aurabogado/status/846817846709575680 …

in Latin America it does. Have met many Nuñez in my lifetime.

Yes, but you're talking about a different last name (while we're at it, you're probably thinking of Núñez, w accent over the u).
@milenaac -
that might be & yes, sometimes it has the tilde. Not always. You are sure Nunes has Portuguese ancestry then?
-
Núñez and Nuñez are also two different names, which would also be pronounced differently (I've never seen a Nuñez).
@milenaac -
And yes, his family is from Azores.
@milenaac -
the most famous Nuñez I know was Vasco Nuñez de Balboa, he was an explorer who arrived at the Isthmus of Panama (my country) /1
