Danielle

French feminine variation of Daniel, Hebrew
"God is my judge"

Danielle Origin and Meaning

The name Danielle is a girl's name of Hebrew origin meaning "God is my judge".

Along with Daniela, Michelle, Nicole, and Denise, Danielle was a big hit from the 1960s to the nineties, sitting comfortably in the Top 20 for several years. Parents then responded to its chic, sophisticated Gallic image, and though it has lost some of its sheen, it's still a widely used choice.

Novelist Danielle Steele is its most well-known bearer; it's also the actual first name of Elvis's granddaughter, actress (Danielle) Riley Keough.
