Errupiñe

This name derives from the Latin cognomen “rūfus,” literally meaning “red, somber, red-haired.” 1) Rufina and Secunda († 257) were Roman virgin-martyrs and Christian saints. Their feast day is celebrated on July 10. 2) San Rufillo Forlimpopoli, or Ruffillo (4th-century and 5th-century), was the first bishop of Forlimpopoli and is revered as a saint by the Catholic Church. 3) William II, the third son of William I of England, was King of England from 1087 until 1100, with powers over Normandy and Scotland’s influence. He was less successful in extending control into Wales. William is commonly known as William Rufus, perhaps because of his red-faced appearance. The feast day is traditionally celebrated on July 18 and July 29.
