Bridget vs Delia
I think that you will find the closest Latin equivalent to Bridget (as used in parish registers) was Bidelia or Bedelia or Bedilia. I have found all three of these spellings used in different sources for the same person. And Delia is just an abbreviation of the Latin. By the mid-20th century, Bridie had become a much more popular diminutive of Bridget than Delia. But in the U.S., these names could also change to things like Beatrice.
