Origin and meaning of Rosaria
Rosaria comes from Latin rosarium, 'rose garden' and later 'rosary,' the crown of prayers dedicated to the Virgin — a devotional name tied to the cult of Our Lady of the Rosary, essentially the feminine of Rosario. It evokes at once roses and Marian prayer. It is common above all in southern Italy, especially Sicily, where such devotion runs deep. Traditional and less fashionable today, it stays dear for its profound religious meaning and its musicality.
