📖 Acerca de Roy
Roy lleva el peso de la realeza a través de las culturas. En francés antiguo, "roi" significa rey; en la tradición gaélica, evoca al pelirrojo, como el legendario Rob Roy. En el ámbito ibérico, Roy es una forma de Rui o Rodrigo, que significa "gobernante famoso." Esta amplitud cultural le dio gran presencia durante el siglo XX. Aunque menos común hoy, conserva un carácter robusto y atemporal.
