Meaning & Story
A variant of Deirdre, from the Old Irish name meaning 'sorrowful' or one who rages.
Derdre carries the timeless weight of Irish legend — the name of Deirdre of the Sorrows is one of the oldest and most poignant in Celtic storytelling. For a pet, this spelling gives the classic name a slightly different visual character while keeping all of its emotional depth. It suits a dog or cat with soulful, expressive eyes and an intuitive sensitivity to the moods around them. Beautiful and enduring.
