US Popularity:2002
Origin:French
Other Origin(s):Irish
Meaning:Dark; From Arcy
You don't have to be an iconic literary character like Mr. D'Arcy to recognize the beauty in this French name. D'Arcy works as a stylish gender-neutral choice. As a last name, D'arcy could come from the Irish surname O'Dorchaidhe, from the word dorcha, meaning "dark." It is also a habitation name meaning "from Arcy," referring to a village in La Manche, northern France. Although it's a name that's been around for quite a while, the name came back into the public eye with D'Arcy Carden, who played the not-girl robot Janet in The Good Place, or Emma D’Arcy from House of the Dragon.
