释义 | dauphinn. French History. 1. The title of the eldest son of the King of France, from 1349 to 1830. Originally a title attached to certain seigneuries: Dauphin of the Viennois, Dauphin of Auvergne. According to Littré, the name Dauphin, borne by the lords of the Viennois, was a proper name Delphinus (the same word as the name of the animal), whence the province subject to them was called Dauphiné. Humbert III, the last lord of Dauphiné, on ceding the province to Philip of Valois in 1349, made it a condition that the title should be perpetuated by being borne by the eldest son of the French king.
