Hello Marazetti, welcome to the Forum!

It would be very helpful if you can give some context for your question, and the place where you found the word.

We have an online dictionary and translator tool that generally works very well, and where you will find one definition of "Chapín". I invite you to try this excellent tool!

However, I can think of at least one other that is not on the dictionary - but I can't help you if I don't know the context of your word.

Finally, we ask that contributors use proper capitalization for their questions; that helps us a lot since this is a learning site, above all things. Thanks!

If it is a "nickname" it means short person (male) "chapo", "chapín" they are short ways or nicknames for chaparro. At least, in Mexico.
