Share Your Thoughts 11 Comments Darla Nov 17 at 5:44 pm I was born in 1953 in northern Minnesota. My mother had known a woman named Darla and liked the name. My name is Darla Jane (after my mother’s sister who died as a young child.) I never knew anyone else named Darla until I was about 45 and living in central Wisconsin, where I met another Darla. I’ve liked having a less common name. Reply Lorie Oct 4 at 5:15 pm I named my Daughter Darla in 1984. Her dad always loved Darla Hood. In a world full of Jennifer’s and Jessica’s I wasn’t going to give her a common name. She loves her name. Reply Christina Jul 9 at 6:44 am My daughter is named Darla we got it from The Little rascals the day after I told my mama I was pregnant she had a dream that I had a little girl and her name was Darla and it’s been that ever since I fell in love with it and she’s so precious she is a little darling all the way Reply Darla Apr 17 at 9:27 pm My name is Darla Gayle. My parents got the name “Darla” from a church Hi-Call magazine. My grandmother came up with the name of Gayle. It sounds pretty Southern. I like it though. Not many with the name of Darla. Reply Darla Feb 10 at 7:42 pm I have always liked my name, was named after the Darla on little rascals, have met a few others over the years Reply Michelle wroe Nov 10 at 2:23 am I have twin girls both with M names so when I found out I was pregnant with another girl it crossed my mind to stick with the M theme. However I didn’t want a common name and came across Darla, I do love the little rascals aswell but just really liked the name and thought it was unusual and cute for a baby but would also suit as she got older. ?Darla? Reply Darla Ann Greene Mar 31 at 9:11 pm I was born in 1964. My dad named me after his Aunt Darla. People do ask about The Little Rascals but not the case. I do often get called Darlene. That Is Not My Name, My Birth Certificate says:Darla Ann (mom’s first name is Ann). Reply Darla Mar 18 at 9:21 am My name is Darla and my grandmother named me after the Darla on The old black and white series “The Little Rascals.” ??? I learned to love my name and found it is of English origin and means Darling. I also get a few jokes with people asking me “Hey Darla, where’s Alfalfa.?” ??? Reply Darla Loftus Jul 1 at 9:43 pm Me too! I’m named for Darla Hood on “The Little Rascals. Middle name is Dene. Reply Darla J Cokeley Mar 18 at 8:20 am While I was growing up there wasn’t any other Darlas that I knew. It wasn’t until I was in my forties that I finally met another Darla. My mum told me that I was named after a nun that took care of me when I was young. Reply Lesue Aug 16 at 11:00 am We have 4 kids named in alphabetical order. When we got pregnant with our 4th the search began for a D name. We like older names that aren’t as popular anymore. Darla was the first name we all liked. Her name is Darla Winter.
