Daniel
A personal name meaning 'El (God) is my judge.' Used primarily as a proper noun, referring in the Hebrew Bible to (1) a legendary figure noted for wisdom and righteousness (especially in Ezekiel), and (2) a Judahite exilic figure in the Book of Daniel, portrayed as a courtier and visionary. The core sense is that the individual's name expresses confidence in God's justice or judgment, but no direct lexeme (common noun or verb) usage exists in Hebrew outside the name.
