[Opinions] Daniel
I've recently fallen in love with Daniel, despite that it's in the top 10 and I usually try to steer clear of names in the top 10. I find it so handsome and I like how diverse it can be, it can come across quite nerdy or bold and strong - it just depends on the personality of the name bearer (though I suppose this is true with any name)Anyway, what are your thoughts on Daniel- do you like it, why or why not?If I ever use it, it will be a MN. What do you think of the combos I have? (Feel free to add any suggestions if you want)Abram Daniel
Casper Daniel
Damien Daniel
Ephraim Daniel
Francis Daniel
George Daniel

Daniel and Danielle are family names- if your maiden name is Daniels, you have a kid with either of those as a first or middle name. I like it, but don't want to continue that tradition, probably since my nephew is Evan Daniel. The other boy, about a year older than him, is Jace Daniel.

If I'd had a second son, he'd have had Daniel as a name, and quite possibly as a fn. There was a tradition in my husband's family to name one son with an H- name plus Daniel as a mn, and call him Daniel, Dan etc. Their taste in H- names wasn't mine (Harold and Horace spring to mind) but since they weren't used, it hardly matters! I'd also have used Thomas, after both my grandfathers.Daniel is a very versatile name, and never likely to drop off the charts; but it's popular for a good reason, unlike some of the trendies.Of your suggestions, I like Francis and George, but I'd use it as a fn.

I like Casper Daniel and Damien Daniel with yours!I have fallen in love with the name Daniel too! This is my second name I would use for a future child, I usually don't think of using top 10 or even 20 names but this one just sounds so handsome almost. It has a really nice sound and reputation (despite it being super popular). I like the nicknames it comes with too, Dan or Danny.Overall I completely love this name!

Daniel is actually my favorite of the uber popular names for boys. I love the way it sounds and I don't even mind Dan. Danny, otoh, is another matter.Of your combos, I like Casper Daniel best. WDYT of Jasper Daniel? Leo Daniel? Henry Daniel?
