I am hoping someone can make out the child''s name.  The bleed through from the opposite page is too disruptive for me.

I can see that he is a son of my wife's ancestor Antonio Jose Cordeiro and his second wife Maria Joaquina.  Paternal grandparents Manuel Jose Cordeiro and Antonia and maternal of Francisco Nunes and Anna Maria.  He was born on 4 Oct 1840 and baptized on the 11th of the same month.  I just can't settle on the child's first name.

Thank you,
Bill Seidler

I think you're right.  At least the end of the name seems clear.  Thank you both.

I would agree with Cheri - Marianno.  A bit unusual but that is what it looks like.

Bill, I also agree with Mariano because if you go back and forth to see what the letters are that bleed through, you can sort of eliminate the dark letter P that's coming through.  Then, notice how the priest writes the letter M.  He has a little circle at the base of the M  almost like an o or e before he starts going up on the M.  (If that makes sense).  

I also have a Mariano in my husband's ancestry and it is unusual. Hope this helps you.

I must have about 15-20 Mariannos in my database. It's not unusual where I do my research, but less common.
