The name is basically the same (if you substituted the equivalent characters it would look exactly the same as the English).

Δανιηλ

Note that this is . In this case, since the name comes from a Hebrew name, I took it from the Greek translation of the Old Testament --from the first chapter of, obviously, the book of Daniel. see http://septuagint.org/s.cgi?w=danihl (You can use a similar method for any name that appears in the Bible that you want the Greek version of.)

I assumed you meant the full form of the name (i.e., Daniel), though if you want the shortened version, it would simply be Δαν

Δανιηλ is the greek translation to Dan and it is pronounced Thaniil. There is no such name as Δαν in Greek. Δανιηλ(Thaniil) is Daniel however.

I tried the following site (it's usually very reliable) but was not able to find a Greek name relationg to Dan. but I wasn't able to find my grandma's name either and she was 100% Greek. http://www.behindthename.com/
