Cruz is a surname of Iberian origin, first found in Castile, Spain, but later spread throughout the territories of the former Spanish and Portuguese Empires. In Spanish and Portuguese, the word means “cross,” either the Christian cross or the figure of transecting lines or ways. For example, in the Philippines, the adopted Tagalog word is rendered to “krus” in plain usage, but the Spanish spelling survives as a surname.
The word "Cruz", as well as "Vera Cruz" ("True Cross") and "Santa Cruz" ("Holy Cross") are used as surnames and topological names. Its origin as a surname particularly flourished after the Alhambra Decree of 1492 and the increasing activities of the Spanish Inquisition, when New Christian families with Crypto-Jewish, Moorish, and/or mixed religious heritage converted to the state-enforced religion of Catholicism and subsequently fashioned and adopted surnames with unambiguous religious affiliation.

El actor Pep Cruz protagonizará la comedia 'Top Model', escrita por Sergi Pompermayer, en el Teatre del Raval a partir del 22 de abril, según ha informado el equipamiento en un comunicado. La compañía Per-versions, formada por Cruz, Jordi Coromina y Anna Azcona, planteará en clave cómica la obsesión por el aspecto físico que reina en la sociedad actual desde la óptica de un extop model, Max --interpretado por Cruz--, a quién su vida de glamour le ha conducido a la infelicidad. La obra se estrenó hace cinco años en el Festival Temporada Alta, y ha recalado en Figueres, Igualada, El Vendrell, Múrcia, Madrid, Bescanó, Castelldefels, Premià de Mar y Banyoles, entre otras.
