I was into the name Darla for a while because my Nana used to have us watch the old little rascals / Our Gang shorts she saw as a kid. There was a Darla who was the "main girl" for a time. Darla Hood. I also knew a woman several years ago online that had a daughter named Darla because she and her husband couldn't agree on anything else and named her after a great grandmother. I also used to athletically compete against a Darla as a teenager from a rival School who was really sweet & outgoing. I have a generally positive view of the name. Aside from the finding Nemo reference which was a staple of my age groups childhood for many. It feels a bit old fashioned but cute in it's own way. I could see it coming back eventually. I'm imaging future female twins Darla & Doris now.

I dislike Darlene as it feels too middle aged instead of vintage.
