Births per year, rank history and how many Danikas are alive today.
Danika (female) is a rare girls' name in England and Wales, ranked 3705th in 2025 and given to 6 babies. The name peaked in 1997, when 28 babies were given the name, the 803rd most popular that year.

The Danika you are most likely to meet is around 28 years old - or else around 12: the name has two living generations. Half of all Danikas born in England and Wales are between 16 and 31, and there are at least 560 of them alive today. If you walk into a room of 100 females, there's less than a 1% chance that anyone will be called Danika - on average, only one in every 563 such rooms contains a Danika.

Where this data comes from
Figures from 1996 onwards are the Office for National Statistics' annual baby-name registrations for England and Wales, which record every name given to three or more babies in a year. Figures before 1996 are estimates: the ONS published only top-100 rankings at ten-year intervals back to 1904, so counts for those years are modelled from the rankings, calibrated against Douglas Galbi's long-run research into English name frequencies, and shown with an uncertainty band. Estimates of living bearers combine these birth figures with national life tables and ONS mid-year population estimates.
One limit worth naming: these figures count names as registered at birth. Anyone who changes their name later in life - including trans people, and anyone who adopts a different name by deed poll or simply by use - is not reflected here. Birth registrations record where a name began, not the name a person lives with.
