The Delmarva peninsula originally was just Delaware Maryland Virginia peninsula. The shortened it to Delmarva because Delis for Delaware Mar is for Maryland, and Va is for Virginia. I am pretty sure that they shortened it because people got tired of saying Delaware Maryland Virginia peninsula. Contact me if you have a better answer.
