Delano Meaning

From a French surname, originally De la Noye, indicating that the bearer was from a place called La Noue (ultimately Gaulish meaning "wetland, swamp"). It has been used in honour of American president Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945), whose middle name came from his mother's maiden name. Delano originates in French language and means "coming from swamps". Initially, it was used as a surname and as a surname it functions until today. As a masculine given name it is rather rare.
