Danú (or 'Danu' without the accent). What do you think of this as a girl's name? For an Irish girl - it's the name of the mother of all gods and goddesses in Irish mythology. Thanks

Thank you. It’s a very unusual one- I’ve definitely not come across it before x

Sounds like European yogurt brand or a character from Moon and me

How do you pronounce it? Dan-oo? Day-new? Danyou? X

From looking online it seems that very few people have been given this name. Myself and husband think it's lovely but feel unsure about the fact that no one else seems to choose it as a baby name! Are we missing something about it? 😅

I love it. I also love the “Dana” variant though it’s still a bit too linked to the erstwhile politician/Eurovision winner!
