Trifon
Trifon or Trifón (Russian: Трифон) is a given name derived from the Ancient Greek: Τρύφων, romanized: Tryphon, lit. 'one who lives in luxury'.[1] An archaic transliteration from Greek is Trufon. It is used by Russians and other peoples of East Orthodox denomination.
In Finnic languages, a variant is Triihpo, which appeared as a result of an f → hp change.[2] Another variant of the word is Ruippo, a surname which was used in Southern Karelia and Eastern Savo before World War II.[3] Notable people with the name include:
