Daris Explained

The name Daris (also spelled Darris) is a male given name in Europe and North America, South America, Brazil.

Some sources state its original meaning is “a student" or "a valuable or precious person" in old Persian language. Some sources state it is a modern Germanic or Slavic version of the name “Dario” (a counterpart of Daris in Italian, Spanish and Portuguese) or Darius (a transliteration/spelling of the name Daris in some languages).[1]

Because of its meaning, it became a very popular name for a male child among academic families in Europe and in North America.

The name is very popular in Bosnia and Herzegovina,[3] especially in and around the city of Sarajevo, and recently became popular in Croatia - mainly in Northern Adriatic.[4] In Croatia, it is exclusively Croatian name, while in Bosnia exclusively Bosnian - similar situation as with the name “Damir”.
