Where this word comes from
From the officially standardized Norwegian place-name element Trifan-, representing a local adaptation of Russian Трифон (Trifon), from Ancient Greek Τρύφων (Trúphōn, “delicate; one who lives softly or luxuriously”), ultimately from Ancient Greek τρυφάω (trupháō, “to live softly or luxuriously”), itself from Ancient Greek τρυφή (truphḗ, “softness, delicacy; luxury”), and the definite singular of vann (“water; lake”). The name refers to Saint Tryphon of Pechenga.
