Delphine and dolphin are definitely similar which makes sense since they share a root word, I can see why that association is off-putting to some people. I don't personally mind their similarity and that is actually what we are going for because Dolphin is a family surname for my husband and we thought
Delphine or
Delphina would be a potentially great way for my husband to honor that side of his family. Nothing is set in stone yet, we aren't pregnant again and aren't currently trying, but someday
Delphine or
Delphina could be used by us as a first or a middle name for another daughter. I really love both names but I go back and forth on which I prefer.
