Answer 1

This could be the street pronunciation of pelado.

Answer 2

Cannot find "Pelao" - Pelear is to fight so "Peleo" would be - I fight, I do fight, I am fighting. Don't know if this helps.

Answer 5

As described by James, pelao is slang for pelado. It could be a nickname.
Sometimes is used as a derogatory name: "¿Quién se cree el pelao ese que es'" Who does this guy (or you can use your own adjective) think he is?
In Puerto Rico we say: "estoy pelao". "I'm broke."
