Re: Dana
in reply to a message by Lily
In South Africa, or in Afrikaans-speaking South Africa, Daniel is pronounced DAH-nee-el and Dana, pronounced DAH-na, is a common nn. I've seen a couple of references to South African girls named Dayna and I know a couple of Danikas (a high-school girl and a grandmother, not related), but I've certainly never met a girl Dana!
