My cousin did our genealogy and discovered our family descended from English royalty. I don't know his name, I was young and was kind of ho-hum about it at the time but other family members were real excited about it. Sorry, no link.

The only reference I could find to "pencando" in English is as a last name, as in Fran Pencando, for example.  Do you possibly mean that this is a word from another language and you want a translation?

"Illegitimis non carborundum"\n\n(Phrase Origins)\n\n\n\n   Yes, this means "Don't let the bastards grind you down", but it\nis not real Latin; it is a pseudo-Latin joke.\n\n   "Carborundum" is a trademark for a very hard substance composed\nof silicon carbide, used in grinding.  (The name "Carborundum" is a\nblend of "carbon" and "corundum".  "Corundum" denotes aluminium\noxide, and comes to English from Tamil _kuruntam_; it is related to\nSanskrit _kuruvinda_ = "ruby".)  "The "-ndum" ending suggests the\nLatin gerundive, which is used to express desirability of the\nactivity denoted by the verb, as in _Nil desperandum_ = "nothing to\nbe despaired of"; _addendum_ = "(thing) fit to be added";\n_corrigendum_ = "(thing) fit to be corrected"; and the name Amanda,\nfrom _amanda_ = "fit to be loved").\n\n   _Illegitimis_ is the dative plural of _illegitimus_ =\n"illegitimate"; the gerundive in Latin correctly takes the dative to\ndenote the agent.  _Illegitimus_ could conceivably mean "bastard" in\nLatin, but was not the usual word for it:  _Follett World-Wide Latin\nDictionary_ (Follett, 1967) gives _nothus homo_ for bastard of known\nfather, and _spurius_ for bastard of unknown father.\n\n   The phrase seems to have originated with British army\nintelligence early in World War II.  It was popularized when U.S.\ngeneral Joseph W. "Vinegar Joe" Stilwell (1883-1946) adopted it as\nhis motto.  Various variant forms are in circulation.\n\n\nSource: [Mark Israel, 'Phrase Origins: "Illegitimis non carborundum"', The alt.usage.english FAQ file,(line 4970), (29 Sept 1997)]

It means "in the sky" and you're right... it is Portuguese :o)\nPs. Don't listen to "Alexander". He seems to think the "no" in the phrase "no céu" is in English. "No" in Portuguese means "in". He's the example of why you can't always trust online translators, especially if you don't have familiarity with the language already. Trust me. I'm right.

In many cases last names derived from what people did for a living. Imagine a village where several men named "John" live. In conversation, you might distinguish between one John and all the others by saying "John The Blacksmith", or "John The Baker". Eventually, human nature being what it is, people would drop the "The", and you'd be left with "John Blacksmith" and "John Baker".\n\nAnother way last names came into being was as a method of indicating lineage or parentage. "John MacDonald", in Scotland, used to literally mean "John, son of Donald."

Carmen was a female name but Italians use it on their males. So what's a little 'i' at the end of a name going to hurt? Although I agree with the rest, your first answerer is right on the money!
