Ruffus is a masculine name with Latin and Old English roots. It appears to be a variant spelling of Rufus, which derives from Latin meaning "red-haired" or "red-headed." Historically, Rufus was a common Roman cognomen (nickname) and was borne by several saints and kings throughout European history. The alternate spelling Ruffus gives the name a more distinctive, rugged quality while maintaining its historical connections. Though uncommon in modern usage, Ruffus carries a strong, masculine sound with vintage appeal. It might appeal to parents seeking an unusual name with historical depth and a slightly rustic, distinctive character.
