Diarmait (male)

Variants:Darby (M) Dermot (M) Diarmad (M) Diarmaid (M) Diarmid (M) Jeremiah (M)
Derivative of:Demetrius (M)
   
Source(s): The Oxford Names Companion, OUP
Notes:

Irish Gaelic,  "without envy".

Diarmait [and variants] may be Anglicized as Darby although Dermot is more usual. It is for this reason that Darby may be found as a pet name for Dermot.  Also Anglicized as Jeremiah [q.v.]

Derived ultimately from Demetrius [q.v.].
