Daniel is both for boys and girls in Israel. I know Daniel guys and girls, and I think it fits girls as well as boys.

In 2018, 25 is the most common age for an American (U.S.) Daniel who is registered male with the Social Security Administration. It is the 12th most common male first name for living U.S. citizens.

Can be related to the country name Denmark.

Danny is not originally a diminutive or nickname for Daniel. It is a Hebrew name that means 'My Judge' so parents, if you want to name your son Danny it should be used as a legal name in its own right. In Israel (where the names Daniel and Danny originated) they are two completely different popular names and Danny is never used as a diminutive or nickname of Daniel in Israel (the place where the two names originated).

The Turkish form of this name is Danyal. [noted -ed]

The name Daniel is also used in Georgia.
