Delinah is a modern feminine given name, most likely a respelling or embellished form of Delina with a Hebrew-influenced -ah ending. Delina itself appears as a short form of Adelina/Adeline (from Germanic adal, “noble”) and overlaps with Delia (from Greek Dēlia, “of Delos,” an epithet of Artemis). The sound pattern also echoes Delilah (Hebrew, often interpreted as “delicate” or “to weaken”), which can shape how the name is perceived and understood.

Usage is rare but documented in English-speaking countries from the late 20th century onward, chosen as a distinctive alternative to Delilah, Delia, or Adeline. Variants and near-forms include Delina, Delena, Dalina, and Delinae; related names are Adelina, Adeline, Delia, and Delilah. Nicknames include Lina, Dina, Deli, and Nia. Depending on the preferred etymological link, Delinah may be read with the meanings “noble,” “of Delos,” or “delicate.”
