The history of the last name Estioko

The surname ESTIOKO is of Filipino origin, deriving from the Visayan languages spoken in the central Philippines. It is believed to have emerged sometime in the 16th or 17th century during the Spanish colonial period.

One theory suggests that ESTIOKO may have originated from an old Visayan word or phrase, potentially referring to a geographical feature or a personal characteristic. However, the exact etymology has been lost to time, as many early records were not well-preserved.

The first documented instances of the ESTIOKO surname appear in Spanish colonial records from the late 17th century, primarily in the central Visayan regions of the Philippines. One notable early bearer was Juan ESTIOKO, a landowner and community leader in the town of Cebu in the 1690s.

In the 18th century, the ESTIOKO name spread to other parts of the Philippines, with some bearers settling in the capital city of Manila. Miguel ESTIOKO (1735-1803) was a prominent merchant and trader based in Manila during this period.

As the centuries passed, various spellings and variations of the name emerged, such as ESTIYOKO, ESTIYOCO, and ESTIOCO, reflecting regional linguistic differences and Spanish influences on spelling conventions.

During the 19th century, the ESTIOKO surname gained further prominence with individuals like Francisco ESTIOKO (1818-1892), a respected educator and advocate for Filipino education reform.

In the early 20th century, during the American colonial period, notable figures included Josefa ESTIOKO (1875-1942), a pioneering female journalist and activist who fought for women's rights and social justice.

Another prominent bearer was Vicente ESTIOKO (1901-1981), a renowned painter and visual artist who helped establish modern Filipino art movements.

As the century progressed, the ESTIOKO surname continued to be carried by individuals making contributions in various fields, such as politics, business, and academia, further solidifying its place in Philippine history and culture.
