Maybe you could convince her to do Daniele?

As a Danielle...
I have got to say that is a terrible idea. I work with a Daniel and it is really annoying when our names are pronounced the same way.
:)Danielle
PS. I certainly don't have big hair or legwarmers- at least not at this point in time!-D.

That is just weird. Danielle, although a good name for a girl, will not work on a boy. Plus, Danielle is a feminime form for an even more traditional boys name Daniel. It is like naming a son Alexandra.

You sure she didn't mean Daniel?
Why the heck would someone use a feminine form of a name on a boy? Where's the Earth Logic in that?
Sorry to say, I hate the name Danielle on a girl. On a boy would just be even more ridiculous. (Though I actually like Daniel alright. Go figure.)

Oh, I'm the same way.
I despise Danielle. It just seems so...I dunno, 80's & tacky in the way of HUGE hair, hot pink lipstick & striped legwarmers.
Daniel has a totally different vibe. ;o)

Me, too. [m]
Daniel is my favorite boys' name. Danielle is my LEAST favorite "legit" (not made up) girls' name.

Ditto
"It just seems so...I dunno, 80's & tacky in the way of HUGE hair, hot pink lipstick & striped legwarmers."
I've always thought the same thing. Plus, my brother is named Daniel, so Danielle for a boy is almost an insult.

Yup, that's exactly why I don't like Danielle.
It's massively dated, IMO.

I don't see why not if she prefer's that spelling or saying go for it [I hate Daniel and Danielle but if she had to pick
I'd go with Danielle]. He could always even say it's Daniel still it could work.
Daniel is a gross name my BIL runied that name forever.

But spelling a boy's name Danielle is simply ridiculous.
