A site about the Sephardim of Romania mentions the following about surnames taken from the Birthplace of an ancestor:

"A long list: Alcalay (from Alcola), Spinoza or Espinoza (from Spinoza), Bejerano (Bejar), Ghirondi or Gheron (Gherona), Cordovero (Cordoba), Saragossi (Saragossa) and others like Montefiore, Montalban, Alfandari, Aftalion, and Barzilai which also matched birth places".
