History & Origin

Ronrico is a coined blend, fusing Ron (from Ronald) with Rico (from Enrico or Ricardo, 'ruler'). It fits the American habit of splicing two familiar names, and appears mainly in the 1970s. It also matches a rum brand name, which we note.

It was never common in the United States, given to only about twenty boys a year even at its peak around 1975, and it has stayed rare. A boy named Ronrico then is about fifty now.

Did you know? Ronrico is also the name of a long-established Puerto Rican rum, so the name carries an unintended brand echo alongside its friendly Ron-plus-Rico build.
