"Variant of Rodriguez"
The name Rodriquez is commonly a male name from the "Spanish" origin.
Rodriquez is a variant spelling of the Spanish surname Rodriguez, a patronymic formed from the personal name Rodrigo plus the suffix -ez, which marks descent, so the surname is conventionally glossed as 'son of Rodrigo.' Rodrigo descends from a Germanic name whose two elements are usually given as 'fame' and 'ruler.' The spelling Rodriquez appears in United States birth records from 1955, and its use as a first name follows the wider American practice of taking surnames as given names.
Rodriguez means "son of Rodrigo".
The pronunciation of Rodriquez is roh-DREE-kez.
