📜 Danuel Through the Generations

The name Danuel has a storied history, with only 291 total births across all time but 224 still living today, showing a slow decline. Its peak in 1973 with 11 births was a high-water mark that hasn't been matched since.

It's fascinating how such a rare name can still have a presence after decades, especially considering the significant gap between its all-time births and current living count.
