ArchivesRe: Danica/Danika derivations
in reply to a message by Melina
Danica is derived from the Slavic denitsa (or denica, dennitsa, depending on the transcription). Denitsa is a colloquial name for the planet Venus, also dubbed the morning star since it is the last "star" that disappears in the morning.
Etymologically speaking, denitsa is derived from den - day.
I hope that helps :)
