Pateiro has several lexical meanings in Iberian languages. None yet establishes how Andrea’s surname arose; the recorded spelling is retained.
A recorded surname deserves a place in the archive even when its etymology is unresolved. Similar words and place names offer research leads. An older local spelling or a documented move between parishes may help distinguish those possibilities.
The origin remains an open question. Parish entries, marriage records and older spellings are the next evidence to seek before choosing an etymology.
