Meanings

Daria (more commonly written as Darya) is the female variant of the ancient name of Persian origin Darius (via Latin Darius and Ancient Greek: Δαρεῖος Dareĩos from Old Persian داریوش Dārayavauš, literally "he who holds firm the good"). In modern day Persia, the male variant of the name, Daria (Darya), is commonly written as Dara. Daria is a saint of the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches. In Modern Persian, daryā (Old Persian drayah-) coincidentally means "sea". The male variant Dara means "weathly" or "prosperous".
The name has been used extensively in Russia and other Slavic countries. The common Russian nickname is Dasha. It has sometimes also been seen as a Russian form of the name Dorothy. Dolly, a diminutive of Dorothy, was also once a common nickname for Daria. In Romania, in 2014, Daria was the 8th most popular name for baby girls. The name is also used among Iranians, especially those who live near the Caspian sea.

Means: kingly, the sea, ocean.
