Dalia is a feminine name. It is used in Arabic (Arabic: داليا), Hebrew (Hebrew: דַּלְיָה), Lithuanian and Persian (Persian: دالیا). The name means "branch," "flower," "gentle," "branch," or "bough of a tree". This meaning is shared in both Hebrew and Arabic. There are several biblical and Talmudic references. It has a significant presence in religious and biblical contexts. However, confusion arose among Hebrew speakers Dalia is not a similar meaning with the name of the flower Dahlia, named in honor of Anders Dahl, a Swedish botanist, by Spanish naturalist Antonio José de Cavanilles, director of the Real Jardín Botánico de Madrid of 18th century. Dahlia is a native flower of Mexico and the national flower of the country. However, in Mexico, it is spelled as "Dalia" another derivative of its official name which is commonly used and popular in Spanish speaking countries. Dalia is a popular feminine name in Lithuania, meaning 'destiny' or 'fate' and derived from Lithuanian pagan traditions. It is the name of the ancient Lithuanian goddess of destiny.
