Name Root:
delphús > delphís > delphīnus
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Latin “delphīnus,” which in turn derives from the Ancient Greek “delphús ‎(δελφύς) delphís ‎(δελφίς),” meaning “womb, a fish with a womb, a dolphin,” and may indicate archaic worship of Gaia, Grandmother Earth, and the Earth Goddess at the site. The name was continued in the Christian through the fish (Ichthys), a symbol indicating Jesus. It is particularly popular in France, where the masculine form was used as the title for the Royal first-born, starting with Filippo IV de Valois. In Christianity, Blessed Delfina, wife of Saint Elzéar of Sabran, made a vow of chastity after her husband’s death. She lived in poverty and devoted herself to prayer.
