Dani

Dani functions both as an independent name and as a short form of longer names, drawing on several distinct traditions. In English and Spanish use, it typically derives from Daniela or Daniel, which trace back through Latin and Greek to the Hebrew name Daniyyel, meaning God is my judge. In Hungarian and Dutch contexts it similarly serves as a familiar form of Dániel or Daniël. Related names and forms include Daniela, Danielle, Danny, and Dan.
