Dardani pl (plural only)
From or related to Proto-Albanian *dardā (“pear, pear tree”), from *darda (“to spill, pour”).
In 1854, Johann Georg von Hahn was the first to propose that the names Dardani (German Dardaner) and Dardania were related to the Albanian word dάρδε̱ -α (“pear; pear-tree”), accusative dάρδε̱ -νε̱ (cf. modern dardhë (“pear; pear-tree”), stemming from Proto-Albanian *dardā). This is suggested by the fact that toponyms related to fruits or animals are not unknown in the region (cf. Alb. dele/delmë "sheep" supposedly related to Dalmatia, Ulcinj in Montenegro < Alb. ujk, ulk "wolf" etc.).
A common Albanian toponym with the same root is Dardha, found in various parts of Albania. Dardha in Puka is recorded as Darda in a 1671 ecclesiastical report and on a 1688 map by a Venetian cartographer, and is also the name of an Albanian tribe in the northern part of Dibër.
