Meaning & History
Probably a combination of the popular name prefix #De# and LINDA (compare CELINDA, BELINDA, MELINDA, DELICIA, DELISE), though it was previously a medieval short form of #Adelinda# (see ADALIND) or other Germanic names with a similar sound; Saint Gundelinda (see GUNDELIND), for example, has been referred to as Saint Delinda.
