Also used in Ukraine. I know a Ukrainian girl named Darina. "Duh-ree-nuh" is how I pronounce it.
I think this name is rather pretty and beautiful. I love Russian and Ukrainian names. I like Slavic names and culture in general. In North America, I've never heard this name before until I met Darina at my high school.

It has NOTHING to do with Daria... Daria is Persian, Darina is Slavic; Daria is [DA-rya], Darina is [da-REE-nuh]. That's like comparing Maria and Marina - completely different names.

Also Serbian. And in relation to the comment above, it has nothing to do with Darius or Persia. Dara, Darija, Darina, Darinka, Darislava, Darica, Darja, Darka, Daromira, Daromirka, Darosava, Daroslava are the names I know of that are made up of (whole or partially) from the noun "dar", meaning "gift". It is related to Ancient Greek "δῶρον" (doron) also meaning gift like in Theodora.

My name is Darina and I love my name! When I was at school I got nickname Tangerine, so no one called me Darina but family only. Now I'm proud of my name! It means "gift" in Russian and "fire" in Persian.

"Darina" is also a Bulgarian female name. Its meaning is connected with the Bulgarian word "dar", which means "gift", and because Jesus Christ is "a Gift of God", in Bulgaria "Darina" and the other names beginning with "dar", have a nameday on 25th December.
