Darby - Detailed Meaning

Your name of Darby has given you rather intense qualities of independence, positivity, and restlessness. This name creates a desire to be a leader, to pioneer new undertakings, and to try new ideas in practical, creative endeavours that provide an outlet for your versatility and imagination. Your great initiative and driving power would enable you to excel in sales and promotion, and could take you far in business success, but you must guard against losing interest once your initial enthusiasm in a project wanes.
 
Your self-sufficient and self-reliant nature gave you the urge to leave home early in life to be free from parental restraint, and to establish your independence and freedom from tradition. Although you are not demonstrative of your feelings in family relationships, you maintain a strong sense of loyalty. In your dealings with people you place great importance in living up to one's word. Once you have given your word and undertaken a commitment, you are completely steadfast in following through in spite of any regret or frustration you may later experience in doing so. You expect as much from others in return but find, either through misunderstanding or lack of principle in others, you are often let down, leaving you feeling bitter and betrayed.
 

 
The urge for action or progress is such a strong force in your nature that you find difficulty in controlling it. Other fields always look greener, with the result that you experience a great deal of dissatisfaction with your present circumstances. You are happy and in good spirits as long as headway is being made, but as soon as you feel obstructed or your individuality and freedom of action are curtailed, you experience an intense nervous reaction in your solar plexus.
 

 
Routine, monotony, and the responsibility of looking after details can have a similar effect. Moods of depression often result as well as outbursts of temper, caustic remarks, or a belligerent attitude towards everyone, especially those closest to you. Any criticism from others causes you to retaliate cuttingly in self-defense. Family and friends find it hard to understand you because of your changing moods, and because of your intolerance and indifference towards their ideas, interests, and feelings. At the best of times, you are not naturally disposed to be companionable and sociable, as diplomacy and finding the right words for the situation do not come easily to you.
 

 
Competitive sports or challenging outdoor activities could bring you pleasure and relief from pent-up frustrations. However you must beware of driving yourself to exhaustion as a substitute for relaxation. Also, you must guard against using indulgence as an escape.
 

 
Your nervous intensity could cause indigestion and, over time, could lead to ulcers and severe stomach problems. Ailments could also centre in the head causing headaches, sinus problems, or defective eyesight, hearing, or teeth. The effect of the nervous tension can appear in childhood as stuttering.
