Meaning: Famous wolf
Rudolph may be a red-nosed reindeer, but Rudolpho tells the tale of a "famous wolf." This boy's name takes an Italian twist from its High German origins in Rudolph and Latin Rudolphus. It comes from the German hrodwulf, with hrod, meaning "fame" and wulf, meaning "wolf". Like Lupa raised Remus and Romulus to create Rome, you'll also nurture your sweet little wolf cub with love, affection, and tender care!
