Diarmaid (Irish: [ˈdʲiəɾˠmˠədʲ]) is a masculine given name in the Irish language, which has historically been anglicized as Dermot, names with which it is etymologically unrelated.[2][3] The name Dimity might have been used as a feminine English equivalent of the name in Ireland.[4] Earlier forms of the name include Diarmit and Diarmuit. Variations of the name include Diarmait and Diarmuid. Anglicised forms of the name include Dermody, Dermot (/ˈdɜːrmət/, Hiberno-English: /ˈdɛərmət/) and Dermod. Mac Diarmata, anglicised McDermott and similar, is the patronymic and surname derived from the personal name. The exact etymology of the name is debated. There is a possibility that the name is derived in part from dí, which means "without"; and either from airmit, which means "injunction", or airmait, which means "envy".[3] The Irish name later spread to Scotland where in Scottish Gaelic the form of the name is Diarmad; Anglicised forms of this name include Diarmid and Dermid.[5]
