Origin of name Daniel is it Assyrian or Hebrew name?

I read in internet that its originally (Daniyyel) meaning "God is my judge".





but some people say its not Hebrew , its Assyrian,





which one is the right origin?? and WHY? any source I can read?

Origin of name Daniel is it Assyrian or Hebrew name?
Daniel is a Hebrew name- דניאל





It is consisted of the words "dani" (judges me) and "el" (god)- "god judges me", or more commonly translated as "judged by god".





Daniel was a Hebrew prophet.
Reply:Daniel is Hebrew. He was given a Babylonian name but I will have to look for it.





O.K. his Babylonian name was Belteshazzar. (Dan 1:7)


Daniel is definitely Hebrew, whoever told you different told you wrong. He was given his Babylonian name after he was taken into Babylonian captivity. The Assyrians took the northern tribes into captivity several years before this so its not even logical that he would have had an Assyrian name.
Reply:The first 3 sources below all state that the name is Hebrew, in origin. Don't know how authoritative they are, but they are consistent.





The last source lists several other sources that claim "Daniel" is Hebrew. Hope this helps.
Reply:Uhh. . im not sure, im not really familiar with hebrew names. . .

  1. the name daniel comes from Assyrians.
    Assyrians are the Cradle of Civilization, everything came from them !
    Maths, Science, Astrology, reading and writing, the first battery, the first wheel etc etc the list goes on and on.

    DANU (Strength of) IL (God)
    Daniel = Strength of God

    where as the hebrew copy from the Assyrians is
    The lord is my judge.

    Jews are good at stealing what is not theirs. dont fall for their propaganda. history speaks for itself. there are cuniform tablets now that have been discovered to prove alot of things that jews claim to be theirs are stolen from Assyrians.
    remember the Assyrians enslaved the jews, their king bowed down to the greatness of ASSYRIA. nothing has changed, it all belongs to the ASSYRIANS !

  2. lack of education causes people to automatically think it belongs to the jews.
    their are thieves. even the old testament is copied from Assyrian literature, Old Testament was writting some 300 - 500 years bc
    where as the Assyrian stories are some 5000 years ago.
    yet everybody only knows of the bible. look into the epoch of gilgamesh
