A city in California near San Diego, or reference to Francisco Vázquez de Coronado, a Spanish conquistador. Often refers to the luxurious Hotel del Coronado resort.
Spanish surname meaning 'crowned one,' from corona (crown) plus the past participle suffix -ado. Named after the 16th-century Spanish explorer who searched for the mythical Seven Cities of Gold in the American Southwest.
The Hotel del Coronado is supposedly haunted by Kate Morgan, who died there mysteriously in 1892, and some say inspired L. Frank Baum's Emerald City in The Wizard of Oz. The hotel's distinctive red turrets have made it a Hollywood favorite, appearing in films like Some Like It Hot.
