Durbin is an uncommon given name of English origin, derived from the Middle English word 'dur', meaning 'hardy' or 'strong', and 'binne', which means 'bin' or 'container'. This name was originally used as a nickname for someone who was robust or energetic, or perhaps for someone who lived near a bin or storehouse. It has not been popular in recent times but remains an interesting choice for those seeking a unique name with historical roots.
