Isn’t it from Gaelic, but reversed / mispronounced? The Gaelic word for Monday is Diluain.

I honestly don’t know. I’m from the south and Gaelic is VERY rare down here. I don’t speak a word of it. I’ve never heard anyone use it whilst speaking Scots (another Scottish language/ dialect, this one I know quite well.) So I don’t know about up north but it’s not used at all down here as a name/ surname/ word for Monday.
