Combination name; possibly God is my judge or follower of Dionysus
Danesha is a modern American creation, likely formed by combining the prefix 'Da-' with the name Nesha or Aisha. It may also be a variant of Danica or a feminine elaboration of Daniel, which means 'God is my judge' in Hebrew. In some contexts, it is treated as a variation of Denisa, the feminine form of Dennis, referring to the Greek god Dionysus.
