Cognomen Canas (Cañas , Canas , Канас ) , across the world, is a common last name. The family name Canas is characteristic of El Salvador, where it is a common surname, Colombia, where it is quite a common surname, and Portugal. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is commonest in Latin America and the Caribbean, particularly Colombia, El Salvador, and Mexico. Much less frequently, Canas is the forename as well as the last name.
