Inherited from Latinēricius, from Proto-Indo-European*ǵʰḗr(“to bristle”). The expected normal result would have been *ariț, and explanations for the current form include an intermediate Vulgar Latin*ērix, ēricis or alternatively *ēriciō, ēriciōnem, in which case it would be regressively derived from a hypothetical Romanian *ariciune (compare Frenchhérisson, Catalaneriçó, Romanscherizun). It may also have simply been a change in the suffix. The change also seems to have affected a form of the Aromanian equivalent. Compare Italianriccio, Sardinianrizzu.
