Origen y significado de Delfina

Delfina comes from the Latin Delphina, linked to delphinus, 'dolphin', and to the Greek city of Delphi, home of Apollo's famous oracle. The name evokes sweetness, intelligence and a bond with the sea. Christian tradition remembers Saint Delphine of Provence, a medieval noblewoman revered for her faith. Found in Italy, Spain and France, abroad it is best known as the elegant, much-loved French Delphine.
