Darragh Name Meaning, Origin & Pronunciation

Darragh means oak, fertile. Anglicised from Irish Dáire or Darach, meaning fertile or oak

Darragh is an anglicised form of the Irish Darach, meaning oak, and is sometimes linked to the older name Dáire, which has been interpreted as fertile or prolific. The oak held a special position in Celtic society, and many Irish place names, such as Derry, are linked to the word. The ending gh is silent in English use, giving DAR-ah. Saint Darach and other early medieval figures bore the name. Darragh has risen in popularity in Ireland lately, and it appeals to parents who like a short, solid name with a link to the natural world.
