"Blend of Dan and Anthony"
The name Danthony is commonly a male name.
Danthony is a modern American blend of the names Dan and Anthony, formed by joining the short form of Daniel to Anthony without any change to either element. The compound pattern, where a short first element is fused to a full second name, is common in United States birth records from the mid twentieth century onward. The name first appears in those records in 1970, which is consistent with a coined compound rather than an inherited name from a documented naming tradition.
The pronunciation of Danthony is DAN-thuh-nee.
