'''Rossi''' is an [[Italian surname]], said to be the most common surname in [[Italy]]. Due to Italian [[emigration]], it is also very common in other countries, including the [[United States]], [[Brazil]], [[Argentina]], [[Uruguay]] and [[Chile]]. Rossi is the plural of ''Rosso'' (meaning [[red]] in [[Italian language|Italian]]). It is also a Finnish surname, not connected with the Italian one.
The name Rossi has been used frequently by various historical sources as The Rossi or [[Varangian Rossi]] in reference to an originally [[Scandinavia]]n tribe that purportedly gave rise to the people known as the [[Rus' (people)]].
