Roderico dei Visigoti, detto anche Rodrico (oppure Rodrigo in spagnolo e in portoghese, Roderic in catalano o Ludharīq, in arabo: لذريق‎; Cordova, 688 circa – Battaglia del Guadalete o Segovia, luglio 711 o 713), fu l'ultimo re della Spagna visigota dal 710 al 711. Alla sua figura si ispira l'opera lirica di Georg Friedrich Haendel Rodrigo ovvero Vincer se stesso è la maggior vittoria.
