Daryll is English in Origin.

Daryll is an English given name ultimately from the Norman French surname Darrell, derived from the locative d’Airelle, “from Airelle,” a place name in Normandy; by folk etymology it is sometimes linked to French airelle “bilberry/huckleberry.” Entering England after 1066 as a surname, it later transitioned into a personal name.

As a given name, it gained currency in the late 19th century and surged across the English-speaking world in the mid-20th century, with widespread use in the United States and Britain; it also became occasionally unisex, especially under the streamlined form Daryl. Daryll itself is a modern, less common spelling variant influenced by double‑L endings. Related forms include Darrell, Darrel, Darryl, Daryl, Daryle and Darell; feminine or elaborated spellings such as Darylle also occur. The name conveys the sense of geographic origin - “one from Airelle” - rather than a virtue meaning, though its berry association lends an earthy, nature‑tinged nuance.
