My grandmother's name is Darnelle, I have looked it up in this database and a few others but this one is the only one that has turned up anything, and it was the masculine name Darnell. Darnelle may just be an invented feminine form, but I was wondering if anyone else has ever heard of it being used this way. My other question concerns the masculine name Danye. I have found nothing on this name, and I would be very appreciative of any information at all- even guesses would be welcome.
