I think you are right about him maybe being narive mexican. I am Cuban/Dominican/Spanish/Irish.
Ortiz, Acosta, Garcia, O'Valley. I look like your average white girl, although I am not. Check into that, maybe he has a relative or something in spain.

I have never heard anyone with that surname here in Spain. It may be a regional name in one of the other provinces but it certainly isn´t in Andalucia.
Just because his surname isn´t Spanish doesn´t mean he´s not of Spanish blood. You can´t go by names these days.
