📖 About Rocio
Rocío is a feminine name of Spanish origin meaning "dew," the delicate drops of moisture that form at dawn. It is deeply connected to Andalusian culture through the veneration of Nuestra Señora del Rocío (Our Lady of the Dew), whose shrine in Huelva, Spain draws one of the world's largest religious pilgrimages each spring. The name evokes purity, renewal, and the poetic beauty of the natural world, and remains popular across Spain and Latin America.
