Danny as a feminine name represents a trend of traditionally masculine nicknames adopted as independent given names for girls. Originally a diminutive of Daniel (meaning "God is my judge" in Hebrew), Danny crossed gender boundaries in the mid-20th century. While more commonly used for males, its adoption for females reflects naming trends that favor gender-neutral choices. As a feminine name, Danny has an approachable, unpretentious quality with a touch of tomboy charm. Its simplicity and familiarity make it distinctive yet accessible. The name peaked in popularity for girls in the 1970s but has maintained steady, if uncommon, usage. Danny offers a straightforward, unfussy option with friendly, energetic associations.
