Signed Painting - Need help deciphering artist's signature

My wife and I have been trying to decipher the signature on this oil painting on board dated 1992. Given the title "Botes Peligroso", we suspect it may be an hispanic surname. We have a lot of guesses but hope to tap into some expert eyes on this forum. Artist is likely not widely known or possibly regional to southwest US. Any direction is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the direction Allan. I thought the first name was likely Henry as well. I think the "H" and "y" are pretty well formed. However, the potential "r" seemed different than the clear "r" in "Peligroso". I also thought the first name looked like "Hemy". Regardless, checking our askart.com may be a good start if this artist is at least somewhat recognized. Appreciate your fresh eyes and ideas.
