(Νυμφιδιανός ) of Smyrna, a Neo-Platonist, lived in the time of the emperor Julian, and was a brother of Maxitmus and Claudianus. The emperor Julian, who was greatly attached to Maximus, made Nimphidianus his interpreter and Greek secretary, though he was more fit to write declamations and disputations than letters. He survived his brother Maximus, and died at an advanced age (Eunapius, Vit. Soph. p. 137).
