Little rock or rest
Derived from the French word 'roche' meaning rock, it originally served as a topographic surname for someone living near a rocky formation. It is also closely associated with the French city of La Rochelle, a historic seaport. The name gained popularity in the mid-20th century but has since become a rare, vintage choice for parents.
