Meaning & History
Delfín is a Spanish masculine given name, the Spanish form of Delphinus. The name ultimately traces back to the Latin root Delphinus, itself derived from the Greek word δελφύς (delphys), meaning "womb." This etymology is linked to the ancient Greek city of Delphi, which was considered the navel or center of the world in Greek mythology.
