Name Origin
He is named after Matt Groening’s classmate Dolph Timmerman. Groening has said that Timmerman wasn’t a bully at all, but a “really cool guy."
In the Dark
Dolph is generally regarded as the most mysterious of Jimbo's gang, usually silent and always soft-spoken when that silence is broken. It is speculated that Dolph may be the most sensitive of the group, even more so than softie Nelson Muntz. His real name is something about which no hints have been provided, and some fans have offered criticism for the show's writers, citing that in The Simpsons' nearly twenty year run, Dolph is one of very few characters to have been almost completely ignored.
