Delphyna is Greek in Origin.

Delphyna is a modern elaboration of Delphina/Delphine, from Greek delphis “dolphin” and Latin Delphina “woman from Delphi,” the site of Apollo’s oracle. The cult title Delphinios also ties the name to the god envisioned as a guiding dolphin. Thus Delphyna evokes both “dolphin” and “of Delphi,” marrying marine grace with classical mystique.

The name family appears across medieval Europe - borne by St. Delphina of Glandèves - and Delphine remained familiar in France, later revived in 19th‑century literature. Variants and cognates: Delphine (French), Delphina (Latinized), Delfina (Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Polish), Delfine (German), and rare Delphinia; masculine Delphin/Delphinus. Delphyna itself is a late‑20th‑century Anglophone spelling. Common diminutives include Del, Delphie/Delphi, Fina, and Dina.
