What name could [name_u]Dane[/name_u] be short for besides [name_u]Daniel[/name_u]? I’m not keen on the name [name_u]Daniel[/name_u]. I really like the name [name_u]Dane[/name_u] but I tend to prefer longer names with a short nickname. Any suggestions? TIA!
[name_m]Daemon[/name_m] / [name_m]Damon[/name_m] and [name_m]Damien[/name_m] come first to mind!

Maybe Desmond, Duncan, Deacon, Devlin, Dorian, Donovan, Arden, Holden, Linden or Walden!

If you don’t mind unisex names, I’ve heard of [name_u]Dane[/name_u] being used as a short/more masculine form of [name_u]Dana[/name_u].

Damian/Damien is a great suggestion:)
[name_u]Declan[/name_u], [name_m]Drayton[/name_m], [name_u]Dayton[/name_u], [name_m]Delane[/name_m], Aiden/Aidan, Adrian/Adrien, maybe?

[name_m]Delane[/name_m] made me think of [name_m]Delano[/name_m], which I love, so thank you

[name_m]Danton[/name_m] or [name_u]Dayton[/name_u]? (I love [name_m]Delano[/name_m], though!)

I like [name_u]Dane[/name_u] by itself too. [name_m]Son[/name_m] graduated with a [name_u]Dane[/name_u] [name_m]Robinson[/name_m]. It carries a long surnamey mn or sort of royal mn so well, like [name_u]Dane[/name_u] [name_m]Augustus[/name_m].
