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

have just remembered I also taught a Darsie. So many spellings to choose from!!

Definitely Darcey......just like the wonderful ballerina Darcey Bussell.

My lg is Darcey and has never been called arsey!!!
For all the haters out there,each to their own and it would be incredibly boring if we all liked the same name and you probably have a name that's not my cup of tea! Grin

Darcie is the prettiest spelling for this name.

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

Not at all. My daughter is Darcie and she is always called Darcie.

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

@MrsJoyOdell , I think it's awful too.

I'm always curious what kind of "arsey" children you are all raising when you think this is what will happen.

Love the name Darcy. I'd rank the spellings 1. Darcy, 2. Darcie and 3. Darcey

I see it as a name that appeals to a certain type of parent.

Probably Darcy if I had to use it, but surnamey names are not really my cup of tea.

Violet is nice (depending on accent) and such a lovely flower. Viola is even prettier.

Curious, what did you end up calling your daughter

@MrsJoyOdell

I can't get past the arse in the middle either.

Dithercats · 19/04/2025 12:26
