HelpRe: Delphine & Despina
in reply to a message by Bex
Delphine is almost identical to the word for dolphin in my mother tongue. Delfin (also stressed on the last syllable). It’s also very French and I have a very soft spot for French names. Overall, while I could never use it IRL, I lowkey love it. That it makes me think of dolphins, the ocean and underwater stuff makes it excentric in an endearing way, though I could also easily imagine it on a classy, French woman.
Despina is not a name I’ve heard before. The Desp- part is very unusual but it also makes it very interesting. I want to go look up the meaning and history behind it. It makes me think of antique Greece or Rome or Shakespearean names. I wouldn’t be gutsy enough to use it IRL, but it fascinates me and I already feel it growing on me.
