Murillo: Spanish-sounding Yet Filipino Murillo is a Spanish surname. The most notable Murillo in history is Bartolome Esteban Murillo, the Spanish baroque-style painter. Nonetheless, this site is not intended to make art commentaries on the works of Bartolome Esteban Murillo. The Murillo that I am referring to is not of Spanish descent. This site is specifically devoted to the Filipino Murillos -- the Bicolano Murillos, particularly the Murillos of Camarines Sur and Naga City. This is the Murillo clan where I belong.Like many Filipino surnames, the Murillo surname is an adopted surname. Hence, it is not unusual for many Filipinos to have the same surnames but diferrent genealogical trees. Adopting a surname was an imposition of the Spanish regime that once ruled our country. I am proud of my surname although it is not derived from truly Filipino roots. | Email Me My Personal Sites
