well obviously my name is Darko and I have been trying to locate a specific meaning other then the one my parents told me, I've had no luck. But my Parents told me that my name meant "Gods Gift/Present"
If that helps anyone?!

I have no idea what the meaning is, but the movie "Donnie Darko" is awesome.

Darko is derived from the Slavic "dar" - present.

I can't help but to notice the element 'dark' in it, but since it's of croation origin that might have no relevance.When googling for that name, i cam across and individual who is seems to be well versed in Croation culture, and history, and his name is also Darko, Darko Zubfinic.Here is his email, maybe he can help.darko.zubrinic@fer.hrIt appears Darko is a last name.Sometimes people on this site give refferences to this Kabalarian site, which give a 'philosophy' on what a name offers a person, that is to say, certain personality characteristics. It doesn't say what the name means, but here ya go:http://www.kabalarians.com/male/darko.htmI found many Darko's while searching, and many with the last name, so your boy is not alone.~SD

Another explanation for those who think 'Darko' is a last name - not so, but the custom of writing names in Croatia makes it appear as such. There, it is customary to give the last name first and there lies a confusion for lot of foreign people. This message is meant as an addendum to the first one. Thank you.

As far as I know it means nothing, it is just what it says - a name. Lot of names cannot be translated and/or mean nothing.
