A solid, classic, dependable name or nickname for Daniel. I like it! It's more casual and relaxed than Daniel, which I've always thought is kinda stuffy.
Danny is definitely a brilliant name for a boy or a man. It is used a lot in Israel.

Not really a real name in my opinion, but it’s a pretty nice nickname, this is actually my nickname for my name Daniel, so I may be biased here. I’ve seen more Daniels than Daniels who go by Danny, which I’m not too big of a fan considering how formal it sounds to me. Danny and Dan sound more nice to me as nicknames.
Danny is the best name in the world. It my name and everyone loves it.

If you actually did proper research on the name Danny you would see that it is a originally a Hebrew name meaning "Judge" or "My Judge" and that in Israel (the place where the name originated) NOT a short form of Daniel. If you think it is a nickname, keep your comments to your self but don't go misguiding people about the name Danny as it it supposed to be a given name in it's own right.

I really like this name, but I certainly couldn't see it being used on its own. Danny will always be a nickname to me. Short for Daniel or even Dan or some other.

I don't like this nickname at all. It seems too childish and informal as a given name and I don't think it could work well as a full name. Daniel sounds more mature and will age better and Dan is a better nickname than Danny.

Danny is a great name and personally I think this is a great name to give to someone as a full name and not short for anything.
Far too immature for people past the age of 16. Okay, I may be exggerating, but it is quite a childish name, it had better be short for Daniel, not the actual name.
