Rodrigo is a Germanic name that was popular in Spain during the Middle Ages, and it is derived from the elements "rod" (meaning "famous") and "ric" (meaning "ruler" or "power").

The second part of the name, Marti, is a Catalan surname that is thought to be derived from the Roman name "Martius," which was originally a family name but later became associated with the month of March (Martius in Latin) and the Roman god Mars.
