Origin: Irish

Meaning: From Airelle; Oak tree

That your precious bundle is destined for greatness is a given. Especially with a name like Darrin, which is a gender-neutral name meaning "from Airelle" or “oak tree.” This variation is a fresh take on the Old English name Darin and the original Irish name Darren. Both of these root names stem from the French surname, D'Airelle, a destination name denoting someone "of Airelle." Though it evolved as a popular boy's name, Darrin is now considered a unique and modern choice for girls, too, which is great news for a parent in the market for a cool-sounding unisex name!
