Jasso
A surname most likely of Spanish origin, probably developed as a nickname or regional form rather than from an English occupational source.
The #2,707 most common surname in the United States (2010 Census) — about 1 in every 23,183 Americans shares it.
Etymology
Jasso is most likely a Spanish surname, though its exact root is not certain from broad onomastic evidence alone. It may have developed as a nickname or from a regional Spanish word or place-name that later became hereditary. Because the surname is comparatively uncommon and well documented only in modern distribution, a single secure literal meaning is hard to prove.
History
The surname is found especially in Spanish-speaking communities and is also present in the Americas through Spanish and Mexican family lines. Its modern concentration in the United States likely reflects migration from Mexico and other Hispanic regions. As with many less common surnames, spelling has been fairly stable in recent records, though older local forms may have varied.

Fun fact
Its double-s consonant pattern makes it look distinctive in English, but in Spanish it is simply pronounced with a soft, clear "s" sound.
