What's the best spelling?

Yasm33na

I'm having a little girl and I absolutely adore this name, but I'm wondering what the best spelling may be because everywhere I look, it's spelt differently.

As much as y's jump out as wrong even when they're right these days, I voted Danya

But I much prefer the name Dana

I've only seen it spelled Dagna.

Danya is the only one I could find on behindthename, so... I went with that one.

EDIT: Dania is there, too, but I'd pronounce it differently than Danya.

Ditto this.

I like Dania... I believe there is a furniture store chain with this name and it is pronounced dan-yuh.

I like it.

Looks like Danya is winning out . Thank you all very much!

Honestly I had no idea you were trying to spell Dana

Just Dana.

Is this like Tonya with a D? Or Dan-ya? Or Day-na? Or Duh-nee-uh? The answer to this would majorly affect my answer to this poll...

I knew two growing up.. One was spelled Dana, the other Daina... If that helps?

Oh, wait- you're trying to spell Dana?! If so, none of your spellings make sense. I thought you were trying to spell Dan-ya or Dan-ia.

Yeah, I'm still trying to figure out the pronunication of the name that we're trying to spell.
