Andrico is Italian in Origin.
Andrico is a rare Romance diminutive in the Andrew family of names, built on Greek Andreas (from anēr/andros, “man; manly, brave”). The affectionate suffix -ico is productive in several Iberian and Italian dialects - Asturian, Aragonese, Murcian Spanish, and parts of Liguria and Sardinia - yielding Andrico as a pet form of Andrés/Andrea/André.
Sporadic attestations appear in 18th–19th‑century parish records in northern Spain and coastal Italy, with occasional revival in Mediterranean and Latin‑American diaspora communities during the 20th century. Related forms include Andrea (Italian), Andrés (Spanish), André (French/Portuguese), Andreu (Catalan), Andrei (Romanian/Russian), Andrija (South Slavic), and Andriy (Ukrainian); parallel diminutives are Andresito (Spanish), Andreino (Italian), Andryusha (Russian), and Andriyko (Ukrainian). Contemporary nicknames may shorten to Andri or Rico. Meaning across all forms remains “manly; brave.” Not to be confused with Enrico/Rico, which derives from the Germanic Henry line.
