Danyel is Hebrew in Origin.
Danyel is a modern respelling of Daniel, ultimately from the Hebrew name Daniyyel, meaning "God is my judge." It traveled into European languages through Greek and Latin as Daniel. The y in Danyel reflects French-influenced phonetics (cf. Danielle) and modern English spelling tastes, and the form is found as a unisex given name in recent decades, though it most often tracks the masculine Daniel.
Daniel's spread across Christendom owes much to the biblical prophet and the Book of Daniel, keeping it common in medieval Europe and boosting it after the Reformation; Danyel, while rarer, appears in English records (familiarly as a surname in the lutenist John Danyel) and rose as a given name in the 1970s-1990s. Related forms include Daniel; Daniyal/Danyal/Danial (Arabic-Urdu); Daniele (Italian), Daneel (Afrikaans), Danilo (Romance/Slavic), Danijel (South Slavic), and Danel. Feminine counterparts and near-variants include Danielle, Danyelle, Daniela, and Dania; nicknames span Dan, Danny, and Dani.
