Roccio is Italian in Origin.

Roccio is a rare cross‑cultural given name found in Spanish- and Italian-speaking communities. In Hispanic contexts it most often reflects a variant or Anglicized spelling of Rocío/Rocio, from Latin ros, rorem “dew,” and is tied to the famed Andalusian devotion to Nuestra Señora del Rocío and the Romería pilgrimage, which propelled the name’s use from the late Middle Ages into the modern era, especially in Spain and Latin America.

In southern Italy the form can be read as an Italianate reshaping influenced by Rocco (Saint Roch), whose name likely derives from Old High German hruoh “rest, repose.” Because of this overlap, Roccio sometimes serves as a masculine counterpart to feminine Rocío. Common variants and related forms include Rocío, Rocio, Rocco, Roque, Roch, and Roko; nicknames may be Ro, Chío (Spanish), or Rocky (Italian/English). Meanings range from “dew” to “rest,” depending on the lineage embraced.
