I am still deciding between Darcy and Violet, but just wondering how you would spell Darcy for a girl?

My friend spells it Darcey, I think this is the more common way of spelling it.

MrsJoyOdell · 24/04/2017 18:37

I wouldn't. Bloody awful name - you're setting them up for 'arsey darcy' for life.

My friend spells it D'Arcy :)

I don't suppose it matters. I've met a Darcy, a Darcie and a Darcey in the last few years. It's quite popular atm and there's no consistency with spelling. Pick what you like best.

Darcey probably, because I think that's how Darcey Bussell spells it!

It isn't really my cup of tea as a name, but what a great namesake. Love Darcey Bussell Smile.

It's lovely - I'd definitely go with Darcy.

BillyButtfuck · 24/04/2017 19:24

Darcy

Sophronia · 24/04/2017 19:41

Darcey. Not keen on it though.

OvariesForgotHerPassword · 24/04/2017 19:41

Darcy or Darcey :) although I do like Darcie too.

JennyOnAPlate · 24/04/2017 20:06

I know one who is Darcie (just to confuse things further!)

Muddlingalongalone · 24/04/2017 20:16

I'd spell it Darcey -and did for the little girl in dd's class who is actually Darcie-

Yika · 24/04/2017 20:17

Darcey, possibly Darcy, but don't like Darcie.

Lucked · 24/04/2017 20:47

I would assume Darcey, like Burrows.

PippaFawcett · 24/04/2017 20:49

Darcey Bussell isn't her real name, can't remember what it is though. I like it.

Kazzawazza69 · 24/04/2017 20:51

Darcie, Darcey, Darcy in that order.

Avocuddle · 24/04/2017 20:59

The word Darcey doesn't look real to me now I've read it so many times over Grin the one that I know is a Darcie just FYI

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 24/04/2017 22:33

Darsee. I'll hold my hands up I love unique spellings.

DramaAlpaca · 24/04/2017 22:45

Darcey. It's not my style though. Much prefer Violet.

BugsyStar30 · 24/04/2017 22:51

I have a Darcy. And she has never been called Arsey Darcy ever!!!

SuperBeagle · 24/04/2017 22:53

Darcy.

But the two I know spell it Darcie and Darcey.

GreatFuckability · 25/04/2017 00:17

D'arcy, like the bassist in the Smashing pumpkins.

gives away age

SpreadYourHappiness · 25/04/2017 00:20

Darcey. Any other spelling just doesn't look right.

KindDogsTail · 25/04/2017 00:23

Like the wonderful ballerina Darcey Bussell.

Dixiestamp · 25/04/2017 01:27

I have come across the name spelt as :- Darcey, Darcy, Darcie and Darci. Not sure which I prefer, possibly Darcie?!
