The story in the numbers
1,100 girls have been named Dalena in the United States since 1946, according to Social Security records. The busiest single year was 1993, with 50 births.
This is a comeback. After an early peak the name fell to a fraction of its former share, and it has been climbing again for the past decade.
Half of everyone given the name was born by 1994, and the 1990s alone account for 28%.

What this page does not tell you. The Social Security data records how many babies were given a name, not what the name means or where it comes from — so neither do we. Counts cover people with a Social Security number; names given to fewer than five babies in a year are withheld. More on the data.
