Background Story
Yago is the Spanish form of Iacobus, the Latin name rendered in English as James. It came into Spanish from Latin Iācōbus, itself borrowed from Ancient Greek Ἰάκωβος, from the Hebrew name of the patriarch Jacob, literally "he will/shall heel". Related Spanish forms are Jacobo and Jaime, and the name Santiago refers more specifically to the New Testament apostles. It is a doublet of Iago, Jago, James, Jacob and Jacques.
