Danyella

Meaning of Danyella

Danyella is a feminine elaboration of the Hebrew name Daniyyel, meaning “God is my judge,” transmitted through the Latin Daniela and distinguished by the suffix -yella, which imparts a contemporary lyrical nuance within the Anglo-American onomastic tradition. Pronounced in English as /dænˈjelə/ with primary stress on the second syllable, it preserves its scriptural resonance while asserting a singular modern identity. United States Social Security Administration records show that Danyella has appeared intermittently among registered births since 1969, with annual incidence figures ranging from five to twenty and ranking positions consistently within the lower nine hundreds—most recently 942nd in 2024—underscoring its rarity and the name’s appeal to parents seeking a balance of classical heritage and individual distinction.
