Delia Green (1886 – December 25, 1900) was a 14-year-old African-American murder victim who has been identified as the likely inspiration for several well-known traditional American songs, usually known by the titles "Delia" or "Delia's Gone" or "Little Delia".
Delia Vaccarello (7 October 1960 - 27 September 2019) was an Italian journalist and writer, as well as an activist for LGBT rights. She conducted lectures regarding journalism in Bologna and Urbino, and edited columns in the national periodical press related to anti-discrimination issues. A self-declared lesbian, in 2005, she collaborated on a project in the municipality of Venice for citizen education regarding homophobia. For Arnoldo Mondadori Editore, she curated a multi-volume anthology on love between women, the Principesse azzurre ("Blue Princesses").
In the book 'Vanishing Acts' by Jodi Picoult, one of the main characters is called Delia. Her real name is Cordelia, but she rarely ever uses it. She is a very cool character, a fairly young adult (I think maybe in her late twenties or early thirties or something) and has a daughter called Sophie and a fiance called Eric.
Delia is the name of a character from The Truth about Forever by Sarah Dessen. Honestly a good book and also a good author. I really like the whole meaning behind Delia. I love Artemis in Greek mythology and this is another way besides Cynthia (as well as Artemis itself) to honor that.
In the 1977 movie "Wizards", the fairy queen Delia of Montegar was the mother of Avatar and Blackwolf. The movie was produced by Ralph Bakshi. (On a side note, it was a very interesting film. It's not what you expect.)
