Rocco is different, and not for the faint of heart. But it has history and is not unheard of. We had a (very handsome) "Father What-a-Shame" at my Catholic college, so I'm used to it. The inevitable nn is
Rocky.
Savina is gorgeous. I wonder what the resistance is by your relative. It's a very feminine sounding name. Perhaps because it is not widely known. I love
Severina, but never heard of
Savina before. It didn't take long to grab me, though.
I bet they get used to
Savina faster than
Rocco.
