Origin
Meaning and history of Jesusdaniel
The given name Jesusdaniel is a combination of two names with distinct origins and meanings. The first part, Jesus, is derived from the Greek form of the Hebrew name Yeshua, which means "Yahweh is salvation." It is the name of the central figure in Christianity, Jesus Christ, and has been a popular name among Christians worldwide for centuries.
The second part of the name, Daniel, is a Hebrew name meaning "God is my judge." It is a biblical name that appears in the Old Testament as the name of a prophet who interpreted dreams and visions. The name Daniel has been used in various cultures and religions, including Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
While the combination of Jesus and Daniel into a single name is relatively uncommon, it likely originated in Spanish-speaking regions with a strong Christian influence. The name Jesusdaniel may have been given to children as a way to honor both Jesus Christ and the prophet Daniel, emphasizing the importance of faith and divine guidance.
One of the earliest recorded references to the name Jesusdaniel can be found in the 16th century, when it was recorded as the name of a Spanish missionary who traveled to the Americas. However, it is difficult to find detailed historical accounts of individuals with this specific name before modern times.
Throughout history, there have been a few notable individuals who bore the name Jesusdaniel. One such person was Jesusdaniel Márquez (1922-2008), a Mexican painter and sculptor known for his vibrant and expressive works depicting indigenous Mexican culture. Another was Jesusdaniel Quiñones (1907-1991), a Puerto Rican lawyer and politician who served as a member of the Puerto Rico House of Representatives.
In the realm of literature, Jesusdaniel Guzmán is a contemporary Mexican writer and academic known for his novels and short stories exploring themes of identity, violence, and marginalization. Additionally, Jesusdaniel Barrientos is a Chilean musician and composer who has released several albums combining traditional Latin American folk music with contemporary styles.

FAQ
Jesusdaniel: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Jesusdaniel?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 5 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Jesusdaniel going back to 1880 and adjusting each cohort for expected survival using CDC actuarial life tables.

We classify Jesusdaniel as "Very Rare". It ranks above 18.2% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 5 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Jesusdaniel most popular?
The single biggest year for Jesusdaniel was 2000, when 5 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Jesusdaniel is about 26 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
What does the SSA popularity chart show?
The chart tracks births, not the number of people alive with the name today. Each point shows how many babies were given the name Jesusdaniel in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Jesusdaniel a male name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Jesusdaniel in the SSA data are male. You can see the full per-sex comparison in the gender distribution section above, which includes the latest year rank, birth count, and peak year for each sex.
Is Jesusdaniel still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Jesusdaniel in 2024, and the page above shows its latest-year rank where available. A name can be well past its peak and still remain in steady use, especially if it built up a large population over earlier decades.
Why can a name have a lot of living bearers even if it is not trendy now?
Because living-bearer counts and current baby-name popularity measure different things. A name like Jesusdaniel can build up a very large population over many decades, even if fewer parents are choosing it now than they did at its peak.
Where does this data come from?
First-name figures come from the Social Security Administration's national baby name files, which cover every name on a birth certificate from 1880 to 2024. Living-bearer estimates layer in CDC actuarial life tables broken out by sex to account for mortality. The population baseline (342,754,338) is the Census Bureau's latest national estimate. You can read the full calculation on our methodology page.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only covers names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files do not have a published Census demographic snapshot. In those cases, the page still shows the SSA trend, gender history, and state data.
