  Dauphin - LoveToKnow 1911   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
Humbert not only assumed the name of Delphinus, but styled himself regularly Dauphin of the Viennois (Dalphinus Viennensis), and in a treaty concluded in 1285 between Humbert and Robert, duke of Burgundy, the word delphinatus (Dauphine) appears for the first time, as a synonym for comitatus (county).
The "canting arms" of a dolphin, which they quartered with the royal fleurs de lys, were originally assumed by Dauphin, count of Clermont, instead of the arms of Auvergne (the earliest extant example is appended to a deed of 1199), and from him they were borrowed by the counts of the Viennois.
The name continued, as in Viennois, as a patronymic, and was not used as a title until 1281, when Robert II., count of Clermont, in his will, styles himself for the first time Dauphin of Auvergne (Alvernie delphinus) for the portion of the county of Auvergne left to his house.

When the Dauphiné was purchased by the future Charles V of France in 1349, it was not only a fateful addition to the territory of France -- future heirs to the Throne would bear the title of "Dauphin" -- but a fateful salient of France into the Kingdom of Burgundy.
