In Greek, technically speaking, all of the Bayer names, like Delta Trianguli, are already Greek/Latin combinations, but the IAU standardization is about a star’s proper name.

Triangulum has been recognized by astronomers for thousands of years by many names Deltoton, Deltotum, etc.
Eratosthenes linked it with the Nile Delta, while the Roman writer Hyginus associated it with the triangular island of Sicily, formerly known as Trinacria due to its shape.
