Meaning & origin
Rozalia is a Polish and Hungarian variant of Rosalia, rooted in the Latin word for rose. In the United States, the name has been recorded since 1912 but remained rare, with a rank of 7,133 in 2025 and a 1-in-107,151 frequency. Its popularity peaked in 2021 before entering a declining trajectory since 2022. Though never among the top names, Rozalia carries a classic European charm, especially favored in Polish-American communities. The name has not seen a revival in recent decades and has no strong association with any U.S. state. Its enduring appeal lies in its floral meaning and cross-cultural heritage.
Rozalia is a Polish and Hungarian form of Rosalia, which derives from Latin 'rosa' meaning 'rose'. The name has been used in Poland and Hungary since at least the 19th century, often in honor of Saint Rosalia, a 12th-century Sicilian saint. In Polish naming tradition, Rozalia has been a classic choice, with variations appearing across Central Europe.
