Some bearers also treat it as a creative spelling of Delicia, preserving the sense of something cherished or exquisitely pleasing.

The name gained early visibility in the British entertainment world through the stage star Cissie Delysia in the 1910s-1930s, but it has remained rare in general use, appealing to parents seeking a distinctive, mellifluous choice. Variant and related forms include Delycia, Delicia, Delisha, Delisa, Delizia (Italian), and Elysia/Elyssia. Usage is occasional across English-speaking countries, with sporadic appearances elsewhere via fashion-forward naming and the international reach of its Latin roots.
