Agrippin is Latin, Roman in Origin.

Agrippin is a masculine given name with Latin and Slavic roots. It ultimately stems from the Roman cognomen Agrippa, probably of Etruscan origin and thus of uncertain meaning; classical writers offered a folk etymology from Latin aegre partus, "born with difficulty" or in a breech birth. Through late antique Christian usage, the related forms Agrippinus (Latin) and Agrippas (Greek) entered ecclesiastical calendars, and the Church Slavonic/Russian form Agrippin developed from them; the name remains rare but attested in Orthodox contexts and in Romanian use.

The prestige of the Roman Agrippa/Agrippina line (e.g., Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa; Empress Agrippina the Younger) reinforced its visibility, while saints such as Agrippinus of Naples and Autun ensured continuity in medieval Europe. Variants and cognates include Agrippa (m.), Agrippinus (m.), Agrippino (Italian m.), Agripin (Romanian m.), Agrippina/Agripina (f.), and French Agrippine (f.). The meaning is best treated as uncertain, with the traditional gloss "born with difficulty."
