Danielius Origin and Meaning

The name Danielius is a boy's name.

Danielius is the Lithuanian variant of Daniel, a masculine name with Hebrew origins meaning "God is my judge." This form maintains the biblical connection to the prophet Daniel while incorporating the distinctive Lithuanian suffix pattern. While standard in Lithuania and among Lithuanian diaspora communities, Danielius remains relatively uncommon in most Western countries outside of Lithuanian families preserving their cultural heritage. The name carries the same gravitas and spiritual significance as its more widely-known counterpart Daniel, with the added benefit of cultural specificity. Danielius has a scholarly, classical sound with its Latin-like ending, giving it an air of sophistication. For families with Lithuanian roots, the name offers a way to honor heritage while using a name that connects to broader biblical traditions.
