Why is it masculine?
Tamaño is masculine because it derives from the Latin "tamanium" (a diminutive form), which carried masculine gender. The word entered Spanish through Vulgar Latin and retained its masculine gender. While many Spanish nouns ending in "-año" are masculine (like "año", "paño", "engaño"), "tamaño" follows this pattern rather than being an exception.
