Please accept João II (and Joao II for ease of writing) for the J monarch question. It still starts with the J but is not anglicised.

S - You could mention their former colony of Sao Tome

F - First name of Portuguese explorer who sailed under the tip of South America (Ferdinand)

I recommend using the Portuguese History Wikipedia page to find clues that start with the other letters.
