From the lane; bright or shining
Dalayna is a modern American coinage, likely a phonetic elaboration of the name Delaney or a variant of Alaina. As a derivative of Delaney, it stems from the Old French 'de la chênaie' meaning 'from the alder grove,' or it may be interpreted as a blend of the prefix 'Da-' with Layna, meaning 'bright' or 'shining.'
Fewer than 5 girls were named Dalayna in 2025.
