History & Origin
Dajanique is a modern African-American coinage pairing the Da- prefix with a -janique ending, its -nique tail modeled on French names such as Dominique and Monique. This French-flavored ending was a favorite in late-century American naming. Dajanique appears in United States records from the early nineteen-nineties, with its small high late that decade. It was never common, given to only a couple dozen girls a year.
A girl named Dajanique from that peak would be in her twenties now. The name reads as an inventive nineteen-nineties choice with a French finish, and it has not carried on into wider use.
