Hernandez is Sephardic (Spanish) Jewish roots. Hebrew, Israelite and jew from the tribe of Judah. Hernand means bold voyager, and "ez" means erez zion or Son of Zion (Jerusalem, Israel). So the surname Hernandez means "The Bold Voyagers of Zion". They were expert sea farers in the oceans of the world.
