What is the meaning of the name Danilla ?

The baby name Danilla is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /dəˈnɪlə/ (duh-NIL-uh); /daˈnila/ (da-NEE-lah).

Danilla is Roman in Origin.

Danilla is a modern, largely feminine variant of the Daniel/Daniela name family, ultimately from the Hebrew Daniyyel, “God is my judge.” The double‑l spelling mirrors Daniella and likely arose through orthographic blending of Italian/Spanish Daniela and English Danielle. While Danila (one l) exists both as an Italian feminine form and a Russian/Slavic masculine form (Данила), Danilla tends to be used in English and Indonesian contexts as a distinctive, contemporary choice.

It piggybacks on the widespread medieval-to-modern popularity of Daniel across Europe, with feminine forms flourishing from the Renaissance onward. Documented in late 20th‑century records, Danilla remains rare but familiar by association. Variants and cognates include Daniela, Daniella, Danielle, Danila, Danilo, and the Slavic Danylo (masculine). Short forms: Dani, Dana, Danya, Nila, and Ella. Pronounced dah-NEE-lah or duh-NIL-uh in English; dah-NEE-lah in Romance languages. Meaning consistently centers on divine judgment and steadfastness.
