From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
A male name. a name of territorial origin, derived from either Arcy-Ste-Restitue (Aisne) or Arcy-sur-Cure (Yonne). The English family of Darcy or D’Arci was founded by Norman d’ Areci, one of the companions of the Conqueror, who was granted large estates in Lincs. In the 14th C a branch of the family settled in Ireland, and Darcy was there adopted as a christian name, at first perhaps as a translation of the native Irish Dorchaidh.
