Meaning & origin
Dalina is a rare modern name that first appeared on U.S. birth records in 1963. It reached its peak popularity in 1994 but never ranked in the top 10,000 until recent years. As of 2025, it ranks 14,942, given to roughly 1 in every 321,453 baby girls. The name has been rising in usage since 2020, suggesting growing interest in its melodic sound. While its origins are unclear, Dalina fits a pattern of feminine names ending in -ina that have gained traction in contemporary naming. It has not been recorded in any top states, reflecting its widespread but very low frequency across the country.
The name Dalina first appeared in U.S. records in 1963. It does not have a clear historical derivation and is likely a modern invention, perhaps inspired by the sounds of names like Delilah or Alina. Its usage has remained rare but has seen a slight uptick since 2020.
