Variations of the name include Diarmait and Diarmuid. Anglicised forms of the name include Dermody, Dermot (, ) 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.

Floruit
''Floruit'' ( ; usually abbreviated fl. or occasionally flor.; from Latin for 'flourished') denotes a date or period during which a person was known to have been alive or active. In English, the unabbreviated word may also be used as a noun indicating the time when someone flourished. Etymology and use is the third-person singular perfect active indicative of the Latin verb ', ' "to bloom, flower, or flourish", from the noun ', ', "flower". Broadly, the term is employed in reference to the peak of activity for a person or movement. More specifically, it often is used in genealogy and historical writing when a person's birth or death dates are unknown, but some other evidence exists that indicates when they were alive.
