Dailany is a recent coinage used mostly in Latino families in the United States; it has no traditional source and is best understood as a blend of the Dai- or Day- sound of names like Dayana with the -lany ending of Ailany and Melany, in which Americans often hear the Hawaiian lani, "heaven". It was almost unheard of ten years ago: Dailany ranked number 11107 in 2015, number 4134 in 2024 and jumped to number 1799 in 2025, its highest rank yet.
