Re: WDYT of Darby?

  • is it for a boy of a girl? It makes me think of Darby O'Gill and the Little People. Does anyone else know that movie? Sean Connery as a young hot buck.

     I like Darcy for a girl.

  • For a girl I hate it.  Why not go with Darcy?

     

    On a boy I'm not a huge fan but I don't hate it.

  • To me it's a last name. I had an old manager and that was his last name. It's NMS and for a girl I agree with PP on Darcy instead.

  • I think it's a super unattractive name. Why not try something more feminine like Dahlia?

  • I like it ok and think of it as a girl's name.  The only Darby I know is about 10 and it is her mother's maiden name.

  • I don't like it for a girl and it makes me think of the white supremecist named Darby from Sons of Anarchy.

    Why yes, I can find a pop culture reference to just about every single name.

  • I love it!

     

    I used to mentor a girl named Darby. She is a spunky, smart, funny little thing and her name suited her.

    The Banshee in that movie is still freaking terrifying. 

  • Seriously! I get goosebumps every time I see that part of the movie!

  • I don't like it, but I might be biased since it's a popular street in my town.

  • I have extreme hatred for this name.  It's just really ugly looking and sounding.  It also reminds me of the the lame-o singer Terrance Trent Darby from the early 90's.
  • I used to work with a girl named Darby. That was the first time I have heard of it. I don't think its horrible, just different. But if you like it go for it!

    OMG I was going to say it reminds me of Darby O'Gill and the Little People too.  I love that movie.

  • I'm not a fan. The only Darby I know is a guy. His friends call him Dorky Darby Sad
