Delancy

Warm and gentle as a setting sun, Delancy is a soft-sounding girl’s name with roots in French history. While taken from the surname Delancey, meaning “from Lancey in France,” this moniker is so much more than the Old French municipality it points to. Signifying something “from the elder tree grove,” Delancy is a name that smiles upon the many works of Mother Earth with ardent admiration. Elder trees are known far and wide for the life-giving gift their little berries behold during the fall, when their sugary sweet juices serve as nature’s own candy or cough syrup. Just as elder trees are a spring of life, little Delancy will surely be your spark of light.
