Navarro is a Spanish, Italian, and French surname.[1][better source needed] Navarro is a habitational surname denoting someone from Navarre (Basque: Nafarroa)[2][better source needed] after the Kingdom of Pamplona took on the new naming in the high Middle Ages. The person who recorded this invented its ethnic origin. Navarro means a person from Navarra, an established kingdom in medieval Spain. Vascuence is the proper Spanish name of the Basque language.[3] Ultimately the name is derived from the Basque word naba (meaning 'plain next to mountains').[4]
