I know a 5yo girl Darcy who is lovely. Definitely that spelling.

Austin? as in Powers? Less keen.

I like it but I like it spelt Darcie, dp hates it though.

VBisme · 06/01/2013 20:14

Darcy is lovely, but if you're worried that it might be too popular have you thought of Blythe?

(The only reason I link the two names is that I know a Blythe who I think of as a Darcy - but I think both names are truely beautiful).

How ridiculous to say that you know it's spelt D'Arcy because your Dad's name is spelt like that!! There will be grown Trayzee's claiming that's the correct spelling because that's how their Mum's name was spelt.

Well you've just stole my two top names, Darcy for a girl and Austin for a boy.

You obviously have great taste! Grin

PLEASE spell it right if you do, it's D'Arcy. It's my Dad's name (and a family name) so I should know.

I had great fun at uni persuading idiots med students that my Dad was the original Mr D'Arcy!

It's the new Isabelle. Every other baby born in the past 6 months seems to be a Darcey at the moment

usualsuspect · 06/01/2013 20:04

I love it, I would spell it Darcy.

Alisvolatpropiis · 06/01/2013 20:01

Darcy is the better spelling.

I think Austin is a great name!

amck5700 · 06/01/2013 19:25

I thought it was D'arcy.??

I like Austin, very underused.

SauvignonBlanche · 06/01/2013 19:22

I love it. Darcy

MalibuStac · 06/01/2013 19:12

I know a Darcy she's gorgeous, lovely name.

balia · 06/01/2013 19:08

I predict it is going to be very popular - I know two new-born Darcy's.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 06/01/2013 19:07

I like it with the Darcy spelling.

mija1 · 06/01/2013 19:05

My dad has a elderly male friend named Mr. Darcey

Kelerina · 06/01/2013 19:05

I really like it, it was on our short list but we're having a boy. I think Darcey is the spelling for a girl?

MrsSpencerReid · 06/01/2013 19:03
