Do you have any more information on Danye? Do you know anything about the ethnic or cultural background of the parents of the male named Danye? When and where was he born?

I can see two main possibilities. If it's the name of a fairly young African American, it could be pronounced "DAHN-yay" and be a blend of Daniel and Kanye, as in Kanye West.

If it's the name of an older Caucasian man, I would think it's likely just an odd respelling of Danny.

If it's a name from another culture, neither of the above explanations would hold, of course.
