Derrie

Derrie is a boy’s name of Irish origin, and is a slight respelling of the classic Derry. You might recognize this place name from the Northern Irish city, Londonderry, or the popular show Derry Girls. Derry, and therefore Derrie, derives from the Irish word doire, meaning “oak grove,” and it sure to inspire baby to change and grow with every season. Oak trees have also long been synonymous with strength and longevity, both of which are characteristics you will surely want baby to display. Derrie could also possibly be a diminutive of Diarmaid, meaning “without envy,” teaching baby to always go forth with kindness and grace.
