Dannita is Hebrew in Origin.
Dannita is a modern feminine name, most likely a creative double-n spelling of Danita. Danita itself arose in Spanish-influenced contexts as a pet form built from Dani (for Daniela/Danielle) plus the affectionate suffix -ita, yielding "little Dani." Through its link to Daniel/Daniela, it ultimately traces to Hebrew Daniyyel, meaning "God is my judge." Pronounced dah-NEE-tah, Dannita carries both the intimate Spanish diminutive feel and the biblical gravitas of its root.
Usage of Dannita is rare but documented in the United States from the later 20th century, with bearers found in English- and Spanish-speaking families. Close variants and relations include Danita (standard form), Daniela, Danielle, Danette, Danika, and Dana; diminutives include Dani and Nita. The name's meaning is typically given as "God is my judge," with the -ita ending adding a tender, youthful nuance rather than altering the core sense.
