Feminine form of DARIUS.
Daria is a popular female first name and an uncommon surname, according to the 1990 U.S. Census.

St. Daria: a Greek priestess of Minerva.
Married to Chrysanthus who convinced her to live with him in a chaste state.

They tried to convert to christian-ism a number of Romans. When this illegal act was made known to Claudius, Chrysanthus was arrested and tortured. Daria was sent to live as a prostitute, but her chastity was defended by a lion.
She was brought before Numerian and ordered to be executed by stoning and then burial alive in a deep pit beside her husband.

They were later canonized because their tomb was veneered and visited by many people, even though it meant taking a great risk (christian-ism was illegal).
