Best Answer

There is no such river as the Murray Darling River.

The two rivers are separate rivers, with their sources thousands of kilometres apart. The Darling River is a tributary of the Murray, and the Murray empties into the Southern Ocean. Together, the two rivers make up the Murray-Darling River System, which is a completely different feature, geographically, from just a river.

Major Thomas Mitchell recorded the aboriginal name for the Murray River as "Millewa". It is known today that they also called it Tongala. The aboriginal name for the Darling River was "Barka".

Can you use darling for male or husband?

Yes, you can most definitely use the call "darling" for a male or for your husband. It is a more reserved and somewhat antiqued call for a male/your husband in this present day and age(the 21st century), but the call "darling" was widely used by English women when making a request unto their husbands(e.g. "Would you mind fetching me Louisa, Darling?"). Though not used as much as it used to be, many people in English-Speaking Western-European nations still use the call when speaking to/with males. Though it is somewhat taboo for one male to use the call "Darling" while speaking to another male, as in the sense that in European culture, the call "Darling" is an affectionate word such as how English speaking Americans may call someone "Baby", "Hunny" or "Boo".
