Hidalgo is a state in Mexico, and a county in Texas.  Hidalgo City in Texas is the "Killer Bee Capital of the World"! However, the inspiration for the name of Hidalgo Limited was the asteroid or minor planet Hidalgo.

Hidalgo, asteroid 944, was discovered on 31 October 1920 by Walter Baade at Hamburg, Germany.  He named it after Father Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla (1753-1811), a Mexican priest known as "the father of Mexican independence" as a thank-you gesture for Mexican hospitality in allowing German astronomers to view a solar eclipse.  944 Hidalgo has a highly elliptical orbit that carries it from the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter to out beyond Saturn.  It is the asteroid with the largest known orbit and takes 14 years, 51.1 days to complete.

The name Hidalgo comes from Spanish and is a contraction of hijo de algo (son of somebody).  It originally referred to a member of the lesser Spanish nobility, the lowest-ranking type of man entitled to use the honorific "Don" in front of his name.  But at least if you were Hidalgo, your father was still something important, and you were still 'son of somebody'.

Other trivia: The full title of Cervantes famous book Don Quixote is El Ingenioso Hidalgo Don Quixote de la Mancha (The Ingenious Knight Don Quixote of la Mancha).  Don Quixote is another minor planet (9448)!
