Costa (, , , , ), sometimes da Costa or Da Costa, is an Italian (particularly in Liguria, Piedmont and Sardinia), Portuguese, Galician, Spanish and Catalan surname. Because of colonization and immigration, it is found throughout Latin America, being particularly common in Brazil and Argentina. It is also a surname chosen by Jews, due to Roman Catholic conversions. In Italy, Portugal, Galicia and Catalonia it is derived from the Latin word COSTA, "rib", which has come to mean ''slope, coast'', in Romance languages. In the rest of Spain it comes from Catalonia or from Galicia, being the Spanish equivalent ''Cuesta''.
