History & Origin
Donielle is an elaboration of Danielle, the feminine of Daniel, from the Hebrew Daniyyel, 'God is my judge.' As Danielle boomed in the later twentieth century, parents spun off variants — Donielle, Danyelle, Daniella — to keep the sound while individualizing the spelling.
Donielle was most common around 1984 and had faded by the twenty-tens. A woman named Donielle at the peak is around forty today. It reads as an eighties variant of Danielle rather than a classic, and has not revived on its own.
