- Delia Meaning
- Means "of Delos" in Greek. This was an epithet of the Greek goddess Artemis, given because she and her twin brother Apollo were born on the island of Delos. The name appeared in several poems of the 16th and 17th centuries, and it has occasionally been used as a given name since that time. Delia originates in Greek language and means "woman from Delos". Delos was an island where Artemis, the Greek goddess of hunt, wilderness, childbirth and virginity, was born. Delia is a very popular feminine given name even outside the United States.
