Rodolfo

Rodolfo means "Italian/Spanish form of Rudolph" and comes from Italian, giving it real etymological depth as a boy's name. It has faded some since the 1990s without dropping off entirely. These days, it is neither rare nor overly common. Since 1900, roughly 32,718 babies in the U.S. have been given this name.
