Despite the tempting link to the English word dash, the name is unrelated; its sense is effectively unknown or obscure in origin.

As a given name, it gained currency in the United States in the 20th century, most visibly through novelist Dashiell Hammett, and has risen since the 1990s for its sleek rhythm and approachable nickname Dash. Variants and spellings include Dashiell (standard), Dashiel, Dashel, and Dashielle; feminine extensions like Dashiella also occur. Diminutives: Dash, Shiel.
