Filipino last name?

Question

macalma, i am full filipino. i tried looking up this name, personally to me it doesnt sound filipino.

Answer 1

my husbands filipino and he is always saying that filipions are like mutts and the origins come from many different cultures, so maybe your last name is more latin in origin or something else

Answer 2

I think you will be pleased to learn that your last name is almost certainly truly original Filipino. The exact same spelling is not listed on this site, but there are many beginning with Maca/l, the nearest being Macalam.
