Diego

Diego is a Spanish masculine given name. It derives from a re-analysis of Sant Yago ("Saint Jacob"), viz. in reference to Saint James the Greater, re-analysed as San Diego.

In today's Spanish-speaking countries, Diego and Santiago are common as given names; Diego, Santiago and Sandiego are found as surnames. The forms Tiago, Thiago, Diago and Diogo are seen mostly in Portuguese speaking (Lusophone) countries.

History

The name is on record since the High Middle Ages (Diego de Acebo, d. 1207).

During the medieval era, the names "Sant Yago", "Diago" and "Diego" seem to have coexisted. "Sant Yago" is used, for example, in a letter by James II of Aragon dated 1300: "[...] maestro de la cavalleria de Sant Yago et de la dita orden [...]".

"Diago" is recorded, for example, in "Et fue a casa del Rey. e mostrolo a don diago que era adelantado del Rey" (Fuero de Burgos, c. 1240)

In the Renaissance era, the name was Latinized as Didacus (from Greek διδαχή (didache) "teaching").

"Diego" as a generic name or term for a Spaniard is documented from around 1615, and "dago" is used as such still in the 19th century. By the early 20th century, the term "dago" became an ethnic slur chiefly for Italian Americans, besides also for anyone of Hispanic or Portuguese descent.

    What A Sound

    by: Diego

    all kinds of bliss
    a day like this is gonna throw it back to you
    and after that you're turning back you try the best you
    can do
    another time another reason why
    what a sound
    another day another way you die
    make it loud
    you can't avoid it things always get boring when you just
    try to stand still
    an urge to vomit can't you feel it don't you know it in a
    moment you certainly will
    even if your head's turning round please keep on dancing
    all goes to waste if you just mind to turn around
    forget all the things you are facing - dance is something
    you know where you're placed in
    'cause tonight all is just fine if you turn around
    another time another reason why
    what a sound
    another day another way you die
