I found the name Pio Roriguez as a padrino on a birth record in 1811 and I just want to know if that is a full name or is it short for something. Does anyone know?
Thanks,
Monica

Encontré el nombre Pío Roriguez como padrino en un acta de nacimiento en 1811 y sólo quiero saber si ese es el nombre completo o es la abreviatura de algo. ¿Alguien sabe?

I’m pretty sure his full name is Pioquinto Rodriguez.

Pio is a full name, a version of Pious – latin or Pius
Late Latin name meaning “pious, dutiful”. This was the name of twelve popes
Ruben is absolutely correct Pio was a shortened version of Pioquinto. In English the literal translation is Pio Quinto or Pious the Fifth, after the pope.
