Help[Opinions] unique Latin(ate) American names you like?
I am looking for names for my next CAF
They can be derived from any origin but they must be Latin American
I prefer names that are exclusively Latin American or uncommon in Europe compared to Latin America
they can also be Hispanic-American
I was unable to find long name lists from Latin America (except for Brazil, they have amazing top 1000s lists and they're very useful)
whenever I look it up online I don't find anything interesting on baby name sites, if you know any websites that have lists especially those that use legitimate birth records (it doesn't matter if they're old-fashioned or modern),
please send them to me
Edit; please send me male ones too!

I'm fascinated by the category of names linked to the titles of Mary specific to Latin America:
Suyapa
Guadalupe
Luján
Chiquinquirá
Altagracia
Itatí
My other favorite subcategory are indigenous heroes:
Urayoan
Lautaro
Anacaona
Rigoberta
Huáscar
Cuauhtémoc
Benito
This thread also has a great list of indigenous names from different Latin American countries: https://www.reddit.com/r/asklatinamerica/comments/1fhho27/what_are_some_common_native_names_in_your_country/
Some others that just feel more Latin American by usage or pop culture association:
Gerson
Chalino
Lian
Emiliano
Ángel
