    You can’t delete from two tables at once. You need two delete statements.

    DELETE
  x
WHERE
  object_id IN (SELECT object_id FROM z WHERE name = 'whatever')

DELETE
  y
WHERE
  object_id IN (SELECT object_id FROM z WHERE name = 'whatever')

    I’ve used IN just in case you have multiple objects with the same name. You may want to change that behaviour to suit your needs.
