Love the biblical meaning (God is my judge), who Daniel was in the Bible, that it can be shortened to Dani or Nel, and that it’s not very common. ? Danielle Jane will be the full name: God is my judge & God is merciful.

I used to always hated my name because I didn’t thought it wasn’t always classic. I was grown up to know my name is so bad, and it means devil and people were saying I was a devil and just like my father because he was a no good person. I was told that my name sent a curse to this family and my name means bad luck, which was towards me by myself. I was always blame for no reason and target as. I really felt better reading this that my name isn’t a bad thing it’s a good thing and to always look for positive things

My name is Danielle and I love my name, my mom gave me this name because she wanted me to stay true to myself and being strong. Although it means God is my judge, I’ll always be godly no matter what. People usually call me Daniella, Dan, Dani. People also say I’m gorgeous, genuine and diligent.

My name is Danielle, Close to the common man’s name Daniel, I don’t know but I am often asked about my gender just because my name is danielle most people don’t know the difference between Danielle and Daniel, They always think that when your name is Danielle or Daniel you are a man.

  My name is Danielle too and I know exactly what you mean haha. People often spell my name as Daniel or go the extra and call me Daniella. I go by Dani and Dani K (a nickname given to me by my Nana) because honestly, I’m not very fond of my name and everyone ALWAYS thinks i’m going to be a man when they first end up meeting me!

My daughters name is Danielle Faith Shore ! We chose Danielle because she is named after her uncle that passed away his name was Daniel.. we chose faith bc it takes a lot of faith to get thru certain things and it for her well. My water Broke at 23 weeks they didn’t think that I would last another three or four weeks until she was born but because of faith we made it an extra nine weeks she was born at 32 weeks gestation she was in Nick you and when she was born one of her lungs were collapsed she was on the ventilator with 100% oxygen and nitrate gas Doctors were concerned ifshe was going to pull throughI do believe that because of our faith in God he laid his hands on her and held her so she goes by the name of faith and that is why we got her name from
