Origins of "Dolphin" as a Pub Name
The dolphin is a symbol of peace and harmony. This may have been appealing to some pub owners, who wanted to create a pub that was seen as a place where people could come to relax and enjoy themselves without any conflict.
The dolphin is also a symbol of good luck and prosperity. This may have been another reason why some pubs were named "The Dolphin".
Most pubs with nautical names are found close to the sea or ports and may have been frequented by sailors or fishermen.
