I believe Dolphin is named Dolphin since it was the codename for the Gamecube.

There are also a bunch of really boring named programs out there. e.g. Gnome Text Editor.

Dolphin is the KDE file explorer.

Oh yeah. It's been a hot minute since I used KDE. Been using GNOME 3 for the last 4 or so years.
