MEANING & HISTORY
What does Raul Roi mean?
The recorded Raul Roi compound contains two independently documented names. Raul is a form of Radulf in the Ralph family, used in several European languages.
Roi has independent accounts: a Galician short form of Rodrigo, and a Hebrew name meaning my shepherd. These branches are alternatives, not one blended meaning. Neither the compound’s spelling nor the Philippine source selects the Hebrew or Galician history for this particular family.
