Etymology
Probably derived from a variant of Ancient Greek ῥόδον (rhódon), but some of the details remain mysterious. Possibly via another Italic language like Oscan, or alternatively via the Aeolic version of ῥοδέᾱ (rhodéā, “rose-bush”) which would have been *ῥοζά (*rhozá). See: Ancient Greek Nouns '
ῥόδον'.
