Meaning

feminine form of Daniel, "God is my judge"

The story

Daniella is the Daniel family at its most elaborated, God is my judge in the old Hebrew, and the family ledger reads in tiers: Daniel himself, about 1,985,400, one of the great American names; Danielle, the French feminine, about 373,700; Daniela, the single-l spelling our records tell alongside Gabriela, about 68,700; and Daniella at about 33,900, the double-l that reads as the most formal of the daughters. Its own record climbed for half a century, about 310 in the 1960s to 5,900 in the 1990s, then held a plateau across two decades, about 9,900 in the 2000s and 10,000 in the 2010s, with 4,200 so far this decade. It goes to girls almost without exception: about 33,900 to six. The judge in the root never frightened anyone; the daughters keep arriving.
