What is Wendy Darling’s surname in Peter Pan?

Wendy’s surname in Peter Pan is Darling. Wendy Darling is the eldest child in the Darling family and serves as a central human connection between the London nursery and Neverland.

In Barrie’s play and later adaptations, Wendy lives with her parents, George and Mary Darling, and her younger brothers John and Michael. Peter Pan visits the nursery, teaches the children to fly, and takes them to Neverland, where Wendy becomes a storyteller and mother figure to the Lost Boys.
