Hi Swiff,I found the name in "Historisches Deutsches Vornamenbuch" by Wilfried Seibicke.
It is an invented name (for literature) from Hungary from the first part of the 19th century./Satu

If it is invented and form Hungary, then it was probably infulenced by the anme of Croatian coastal region Dalmatia.

Thinkbabynames.com has Dalma referenced, and I quote as such: "Dalma is a very rare female first name and a very rare surname (source: 1990 U.S. Census)."they then go on to say that is, in fact, a varient of Dalmace, which is a very rare feminine first name and surname. I'm not sure how accurate those are though.
