Originally spelledRode-Island. From unstandardized Early ModernDutchRoode Eylant(“Red Island”), after a description ofAquidneck Island given by navigatorAdriaen Block:een rodlich Eylande (ModernDutcheen roodlijk eiland).[1]
Modern spelling due to influence fromRhodes, asGiovanni da Verrazzano had once likened an isle somewhere about theNarragansett Bay to it, though the precise identity of the isle he was referring to remains unknown. The earliest spelling showing influence from this isRhod-Island.[2]
