From the alder grove; of the lane
Delaina is a modern elaboration of Delaney or a variant of Delaine. It likely stems from the Old French 'de la laine' meaning 'of the lane' or the Gaelic 'Ó Dubhshláine' meaning 'descendant of Dubhshláine', which translates to 'black of the Slane river'.
About 9 girls were named Delaina in 2025.
