When King Arthur was a young boy, the powerful wizard Merlin prepared him to become Britain's ruler. In later years, Merlin became King Arthur's trusted adviser and helper. Some 300 years later, the British chronicler Geoffrey of Monmouth told a more elaborate story about the magician in his History of the Kings of Britain (1136).
Merlin /mer-lin/ [2 sylls.] as a boys' name is pronounced MER-lin. It is of Welsh origin, and the meaning of Merlin is sea fortress.Mythology: Arthurian tales describe Merlin as the wizard who was King Arthur's mentor. Myrddin, the wizard who tutored King Arthur in British legend was known as Myrddin Emrys.Writers translated this into Latin as Merlin Ambrosius, and into English as Mervyn. It was a mistake as the first part of the name was a Welsh place name for the seacoast town of Carmarthen.Emrys was the personal name and a Welsh version of Ambrose. So Merlin probably means  Ambrose of Carmarthen, and is only vaguely related to Mervyn and its variants.t was a mistake as the first part of the name was a Welsh place name for the seacoast town of Carmarthen.
