Antholin is in Origin.

Antholin is a rare Anglicized variant of Spanish Antolín, which descends from Latin Antoninus, a diminutive of Antonius. The inserted h reflects influence from the English form Anthony, whose spelling long ago borrowed an h by association with Greek anthos (“flower”) despite different roots. Antonius is likely of Etruscan origin and of uncertain meaning; by tradition, names in this family are glossed as “priceless” or “of inestimable worth.”

The name’s use is tied to the cult of San Antolín (Saint Antoninus of Pamiers), a medieval martyr venerated in Spain - most famously at Palencia Cathedral - and spread through the Iberian world, Latin America, and the Philippines (where Antolin also appears as a surname). Related forms and cognates include Antolín/Antolin, Antoninus, Antonino, Antonin/Antonín, Antonio, Anthony/Antony, Antoine, Antón, and Anton; short forms such as Toni or Anto may be used informally.
