Darica

Meaning of Darica

Darica, a feminine name pronounced duh-REE-kuh (/dəˈriːkə/), is a hidden gem with ancient roots and a Latin glow. Borrowed from the Persian daric—the gold coin of Darius the Great—it radiates strength, value and a dash of daring. It barely flickered on U.S. birth charts in the ’80s, peaking at just eight newborns in 1991, which means a daughter named Darica will likely stand out at the playground—a scoop of sunshine in a sea of familiar names. Its simple, melodic rhythm evokes the corazón of a Latin ballad while its golden links spark dreams of grand adventures, making it an ideal pick for parents who crave rare elegance and bold beginnings.
