Darquis is of African origin, derived from the Yoruba name 'Daraku', meaning 'one who brings peace'. It's a unique and distinctive name, often mistaken for a female name due to its similarity to 'D'Arcy' but it's indeed unisex. Darquis gained some popularity in the United States during the late 20th century.
"Between 1991 and 2000, there were a total of 12 babies named Darquis."
