Not the same spelling, but Dauzat Noms et Prenoms, s.n. <Derrien>, n. 
breton, anc. n. de bapt. d'origine obscure (Dergen en 864, dans le Cart. 
de Redon). My poor translation: Darrien, a Breton name, ancient 
baptismal name with an obscure origin.  The rest looks to be an early 
spelling with date, and its source.

Someone else want to translate that please?
