Dolphin is a gender-neutral name. The masculine form is of English and Irish origin and is believed to be a derivative of the name Dólgfinnr. It means “enemy,” “fiend,” or “battle.” Dolphin can also be seen as a form of the Greek name Delphine, which means “a womb,” “a fish with a womb,” or “dolphin.” Dolphins are marine mammals considered by many to be the ocean’s friendliest guide. They are super social and intelligent creatures full of joy and playfulness. The name Dolphin can also be linked to Delphinus, the name for a constellation located in the northern sky near the celestial equator. This constellation also happens to trace a shape that looks just like a dolphin. Whatever meaning resonates most with you, baby Dolphin is sure to make a splash— whether they’re exploring the ocean or the skies.
