Spanish: from a Latinized form of the personal name
Íñigo, which is of pre-Roman origin (recorded in
classical times as Enneco). As a personal name it was not
common in the Middle Ages; its comparative popularity in Catholic
countries today is due to the fame of St. Ignatius of Loyola (Iñigo
Yáñez de Oñaz y Loyola, 1491–1556), founder of the Society
of Jesus (Jesuits).
