Origins as a given name

Dan is an old Scandinavian given name with several disputed origins. The most likely theoryШаблон:Citation needed is that it originated from the Old Norse ethnonym Шаблон:Wikt-lang for Danes. This in turn originated from the Proto-Germanic masculine word *Шаблон:Wikt-lang. There are several historical variants including *Шаблон:Lang "half-Dane", as well as *Шаблон:Wikt-lang "Danish" (where the Шаблон:Lang suffix is ancestral to modern English Шаблон:Linktext).

The name Dan is also a Hebrew given name, after Dan, the fifth son of Jacob with Bilhah and founder of the Israelite Tribe of Dan.[1] It is also (along with the variant Danny) a given name or a nickname for people named Daniel or possibly Jordan.
