Although there is no univocal source that confirms it, the dialect name of this bridge would seem to be "'o Razio" (del dazio), in reference to the fact that on the bridge, an obligatory passage for those moving between the Piana di Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast, a toll was collected in ancient times.
Over time, "'o Razio" would then be Italianized into "Orazio", creating a parallel with the Roman hero Horace Cocles and his legendary defense of the Ponte Sublicio.
