Darcy? Girls or boys name or both?

[KLou1105]

I like the name Darcy for a girl, to go with dd Lottie. Thoughts please

I know two Darcys. Both girls aged 5. I like it.

I think it's more popular for girls, but the one Darcy I know is a boy. I'm not keen on it for either.

Prefer spelling Darcey

Never heard it for a boy

Getting popular at moment. Pretty though.

I don't like surnames as names. Also the only Darcy I know is a dog.

I know 2 girl/ named this although one is spelt Darcie. I like it as a name but prefer the Darcy spelling

I know a 2 year old Darcy (girl). I didn't like it at first but it's grown on me and it really suits her.

Thanks, and yes I was wandering which spelling to use, Darcy, Darcey or Darcie but think I prefer Darcy tho. I only no one girl aged 3 with this name, but when I searched the name on google it says boys name so just got me thinking that's all.

King Charles or miniature schnauzer.

As Scarlet says, it's a surname. As we all know, Mr Darcy's first name was Fitzwilliam....

DD20 has a friend called Darcy. At least it says Darcy on her birth certificate-she's always known as "Bumsy" !! Short for D'bumsy-as opposed to D'arse-y!! And she doesn't mind? In fact she introduces herself as "Bumsy" and explains it! I think it's been quite the conversation starter when they've been out on the town!!

I think of it primarily as a girl's name, although I know it can be boy's too.

It's unisex. I wouldn't expect a man or a woman. I'd wait and see.

I don't like it either. It's that surname as a first name thing again and I am not a fan. That's just personal preference though. You should absolutely use it if you like it.

Lovely - for a girl x

I'd say girls name.

I know a girl Darcey

turd DD20?!

Girl.

I know 2 girl Darcy's under 2

The only Darcy I have heard of is the ballerina Darcey Bussell. It is nice whichever way spelt but can't imagine it as a boys name.

I'm laughing at Bumsy!

I don't think as a name it will age very well to be honest OP.

Dolores I think she means her dd who is 20, rather than she has 20 dds .

I know one toddler Darcey. Her mum says she gets various spellings but according to her, Darcey is the female spelling.

Mr Darcy was unimpressed to hear that his noble family name was being snaffled for baby girls.

I know a lovely little girl called Darcy. It's not my cup of tea though, it sounds quite abrupt or something? Looking at your spellings, I like Darcie strangely!

I know one and he is a boy, suits him never really thought of it as girls name until Ms. Bussell came on the scene

Not so much used for boys, and Darcy spelling mainly. It's mega popular for girls. Not my favourite name, personally.
