Danni Origin and Meaning

The name Danni is a girl's name.

Danni is a versatile name used primarily for girls but occasionally for boys as well. It originated as a diminutive of longer names like Danielle (feminine) or Daniel (masculine), derived from the Hebrew meaning 'God is my judge.' This shorter form emerged as an independent name in the late 20th century, reflecting the trend toward casual, approachable names. The spelling with an 'i' ending gives it a youthful, modern appearance compared to alternatives like 'Danny.' Danni strikes a balance between cute and professional, allowing it to grow well with its bearer. Its cross-cultural accessibility and straightforward pronunciation have contributed to modest but consistent usage across English-speaking countries, particularly appealing to parents who value simplicity and informality while maintaining connections to traditional naming patterns.
