1933 by Henry Myers. WRONG. In 1933 David Armbruster (University of Iowa coach) invented the stroke and it was first swum by Jack Siege, his swimmer. Henry Myers was the first to compete in the butterfly.
Butterfly is both a swimming style in competitive swimming and an insect. It is named butterfly due to the resemblance of the stroke to the movement of a butterfly's wings.

Butterfly
The stroke known as "butterfly" is named for its resemblance to the fluttering motion of a butterfly's wings. Swimmers move their arms in a simultaneous, circular motion while performing a dolphin kick, mimicking the graceful movement of a butterfly in flight. The name captures both the visual aspect of the stroke and the fluidity of the movements involved.

It was origionally called butterfly by David Armbruster, the inventor, when he evolved it from breastroke in 1933. The kick style was called dolphin fish kick, and other people claim to have invented it before David.
