What is the meaning of the name Roky ?

The baby name Roky is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈroʊki/ (ROH-kee).

Roky is English in Origin.

Roky is a modern respelling of Rocky, itself used as a nickname and given name derived either from Italian Rocco/French Roch (Latin Rochus) or from the English word rock. Through Rocco/Roch, the name ultimately traces to a Germanic root often interpreted as “rest” or “repose,” while in modern English the “rock” association lends connotations of strength and steadfastness.

Usage of Rocky as a given name rose in the mid-20th century in the U.S., peaking after the 1976 film Rocky; the rarer Roky form appears sporadically, notably borne by American musician Roky Erickson, and is also encountered as a phonetic rendering in Spanish-speaking contexts linked to Roque. Related variants and cognates include Rocky, Rockie, Rocki, Rocco, Roch, Roque, Roko, and diminutive Roki; feminine counterparts are uncommon, though Rochelle is sometimes associated through the “rock” meaning. Overall meaning centers on resilience and constancy, with older saintly overtones of peaceful rest.
