Best Answer

It means "Rich Port".

Rico in Spanish means rich in English just if your talking about money. If your talking about food rico means it's delicious, good, etc. Example, "esto huele rico" mean this smell good or " que Rica la comida" means like delicious food in English.

Puerto Rico means "Rich Port" in Spanish.

The word Puerto in Spanish means port, and the word Rico means rich, affluent, delicious or costly. Presumably Puerto Rico means Rich Port, Port of the Rich, or something similar.

Puerto Rico translated to English would mean rich port and was named such for so much gold going out of its ports to mother country Spain.

So you got the Spanish name already.
