Yes, i believe that the reason that this surname is very common in Brazil can be because this surname can be colonial and maybe the bandeirantes have spread this lastname

"Bandeirantes is the denomination given to the sertanistas of the colonial period, who, from the beginning of the sixteenth century, penetrated the interior of South America in search of mineral wealth, especially gold and silver, abundant in Spanish America, indigenous to enslavement or Quilombos extermination. They contributed, in great part, to the territorial expansion of Brazil beyond the limits imposed by the Treaty of Tordesilhas, occupying the Center West and the South of Brazil. And they were the gold discoverers in Minas Gerais, Goiás and Mato Grosso.

According to Carvalho Franco, the majority of the bandeirantes were descendants of the first and second generation of Portuguese in São Paulo, and the captains of the flags of European origin were varied, not only descendants of Portuguese but also Galicians, Castilians and New Christians, besides some cases of Genoese, Basque, Saracen, Neapolitan and Tuscan kin, among others"

Por supuesto que no.

La gente tiene que entender que, para empezar, fueron los judíos sefarditas quienes adoptaron apellidos españoles. Si hubo un judío con el apellido Gómez (por poner un ejemplo), eso no significa que Gómez sea un apellido judío.

Creo que esto es el caso por todo Europa. Los judíos tomaron apellidos europeos, y no lo contrario. Los únicos que son verdaderamente judíos son variaciones de Cohen y de Israel, según lo que he leído.

[Damião de Góis]

In portuguese it would be Moniz, not Muniz or Muñiz.
