Irigoyen (irigoien)


IRIGOYEN (IRIGOIEN) The meaning is IRI :Town or group of houses, and GOIEN: in the high part, so the complete meaning is: (the house) in the higher part of the Town. In the north part of our country was not very normal the groups of houses so IRI or URI means today city or Town, but in the past was simply a group of houses.

There are Irigoien families in many places, but I am only to speak here about the Irigoien families of Navarra .
