The toponym Roda de Bará was formed from the toponym Roda and the anthroponym Berá, which identified two of the nuclei of a single territory made up of Roda, Berá, and also Creixell. The current name, formed by Roda, the preposition and Berá, does not go beyond the middle of the nineteenth century, as recorded in the municipal acts, and would designate the historical pre-eminence of Berá over Roda. Prior to this century, the documentation always recorded Roda and Berá separately. The one as a term or place is Roda and the other as the district of Berá. In fact, from their origin, it is clear that they are two distinct nuclei but linked territorially and historically, which will end up forming a single municipality. With regard to Roda, it seems that it would have been a homonym of Roda de Ter (Osona), a town from which it is very likely that the first Christian settlers came. It would be a case of a transferred toponym. With regard to its etymology, while Joan Coromines adduces an associated Latin or Romanesque origin "since the structure of the places shows an unmistakable wheel shape", Pere Balañà sees an Arabic origin, from the classical Arabic aràuda "the garden, the orchard", an origin that does not rule out Enric Moreu-Rey, but with another meaning, as a toll or right that was paid to pass through certain places.  in any case, a toponym referring to communications. Finally, Anscari M. Mundó interprets Roda as a fortification and states that it could have been "the main set of fortified defences of Count Bera. On the other hand, Bará is a word of Germanic origin, very common as a person's name  the Gothic count Bera of Barcelona between 801 and 820 is a good example. In fact, it seems quite likely that the association between the appellation of Count Bera and the name of the place are related, as Anscari Mundó indicates. As a place name, the word is well documented in medieval times since the year 1010  the year of the first surviving news. We also find it declined (Berano, Beranii), postponed to the concepts castrum, terminum and ecclesiam, especially in the Cartulary of the Monastery of San Cugat (1013, 1037, 1040, 1041, 1049, 1069, 1097, 1143, 1152, 1154 or 1194). It was later that this toponym would reflect the fluctuation between the unstressed "a" and "e", typical of eastern Catalan, so that from the fourteenth century Barà was spelled alternately with Berà. An exceptional example is the document of March 1718 in which the act of building the current hermitage of Bará is described and where "Mayor of Roda y Bera" and "Chapel of Bara" are written, two lines later. However, in 1931 the Philological Section of the Institute of Catalan Studies (IEC) indicated that the name proposed as official was the original one endorsed by philologists, Berà. Finally, in 2012, the official name was changed to Roda de Berà. El Roc de Sant Gaietà. The difficulty of establishing a clear connection between the toponym and its etymological origin has generated a multitude of popular explanations, some of which have remained for years as the only explanation of the origin of the population. Thus, by way of example, some local scholars, such as Flocel Puig, indicate that Roda comes from the circular shape of its beach or that Bará would come from the word varar, referring to the action of pushing the boats, a fairly widespread idea, however, among the population, as shown by some programs of activities.  From the year 1972 in which this etymological profile is traced to explain the origin of the population. In other cases, the misreading of the dedication to Surah of the arch of Bara by Bara is indicated. Finally, other theories, now more speculative, indicated that the name came from the work carried out by horses on a Ferris wheel
