Dania

Dania is a Latinate feminine name with two principal etymological threads. It functions as a feminine form of Danius, itself a Latinized derivative of Dan, the Hebrew name meaning judge, borne in the Old Testament by a son of Jacob and patriarch of one of the twelve tribes of Israel. Dania also serves as a Latinized poetic term for Denmark, and in some traditions the name carries a sense of a woman from Denmark or the Danish lands. Related forms include Dana, Danna, and Daniela.
