The girl's name Delaney \d(e)-la-ney\, also used as boy's name Delaney, is pronounced da-LAY-nee. It is of Old French origin, and its meaning is "from the alder grove". From "del aunaie". Also possibly Irish, Gaelic "offspring of the challenger" or "angel from heaven". Delayne is definitely "An Angel from Heaven" she is smart and caring, loveable and brings joy and happiness to those around her. She is a joy to know and and even bigger joy to love. Her love is exclusive and definitely a treat. To be in her presence is an honor and a joy!! She's beautiful both inside and out...
