<p>Deerdre is a variant spelling of the Irish name Deirdre, which originates from ancient Gaelic mythology. In Irish legend, Deirdre was a woman of extraordinary beauty whose tragic story is told in the Ulster Cycle. The name means "sorrowful" or "broken-hearted," reflecting the sad fate of the legendary character. Despite its melancholic meaning, Deerdre has maintained modest popularity throughout the English-speaking world. The alternate spelling with two 'e's is less common than the traditional Deirdre. The name peaked in popularity in the mid-20th century and has since become less frequently used, giving it a distinctive and somewhat vintage quality today.</p>
