Lol when your name is Darinka and you're looking in the comments and you see someone say your name sounds like “drinker”. A lot of people don’t always know how to pronounce the name but it’s actually really easy.

Darinka is also Serbian. And definitely from the noun dar with the suffix -inka, which also comes in the -anka form (Slobodanka).
Also a common feminine name in Croatia, but I believe it could also derive from Slavic "dar" (including in Slovenia), cf. Dara, Darko, Božidar. [noted -ed]
