The word medina is a) the name of a city in Arabia but also, apparently, a generic term meaning city in Arabic, and b) a Hebrew word that means country. It is also a Hispanic family name, probably arriving in Spain with either the Arabic conquest or the Jewish diaspora (or both). So, it may mean that someone has Spanish ancestry and possible Arab or Jewish ancestry 500 years ago.
