The name was later adopted into Greek as Δανιήλ (Daniēl) and subsequently into Latin as Danielis, before making its way into Old French as Daniel.

The Book of Daniel has been influential in both Jewish and Christian traditions, contributing to the name's enduring legacy. The name gained further prominence during the Renaissance, when biblical names were revived in Europe, and it has been featured in numerous literary works and religious texts, including the King James Bible, published in 1611, which solidified its presence in English-speaking cultures.

Variants and diminutives of the name, such as Danny or Dani, have emerged in various cultures, reflecting the name's adaptability and resonance across different societies.
