Origin: Irish

Meaning: Oak tree; From Airelle

Short yet full of character, Daren was once reserved for boys but is making strides as a gender-neutral name. While Daren’s exact roots are somewhat of a mystery, some suggest it derives from the Irish given name Dáire, meaning “oak tree.” When baby’s not climbing trees or snoozing on cozy boughs, the British and French meaning “from Airelle” from Darrell will speak to their adventurous spirit.
