Reply to: detailed history behind the name Darcie by Darcie Nickolas
DARCY m,f
Usage: English
Pronounced: DAHR-see
From a Norman surname meaning "from Arcy" from French D'Arcy, originally denoting one who came from Arcy in France. This is the surname of a character in Jane Austen's novel 'Pride and Prejudice'.

Someone else could perhaps elaborate on Behind the Name's entry.
