Hello everyone,

    I’m British so forgive me if my Spanish is a bit bad, but one other thing, congratulations on the win 😂 you deserved it.

    Here above you will see a map of the regional frequency of the surname García. Since it is the most common surname in Spain (I think) I started looking for how many people have that surname, after having searched for my surname.

    But my question is, why aren’t there so many Garcias in Aragon, Catalonia, Rioja, and I don’t know the other regions 😂. But that’s all? Is there a reason for that?

    Thanks in advance!

      Ironías de la vida, la localidad García está situada en la comarca de Ribera de Ebro en Cataluña (unos 500 habitantes aproximadamente).

    2. Supongo que García no era un nombre común en la corona de Aragón. Se ve algo similar con Jaume, que aparece mayoritariamente en la antigua corona de Aragón.

      Un poco la frontera de Corona de Aragón, Reino de Navarra y el Reino de Castilla.
