Griffin Meaning
Latinized form of Gruffudd. This name can also be inspired by the English word griffin, a creature with the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle, ultimately from Greek γρυψ (gryps). Griffin is derived from the Old Welsh given name "Gruffydd", based on the words "griff", which is of uncertain meaning but could possibly mean a "dragon", and "udd", which means "chief or lord". The name itself could be taken to mean " fierce person".
