Throughout the world, Dangan (Dangan 
, 丹根 
) is a rare dominantly male, but infrequently feminine given name. The forename Dangan is characteristic of Philippines, where it is a very rare principally male, but scarcely girly name, Nigeria, where it is an extremely rare masculine name, and India, where it is an extremely rare dominantly masculine, but seldom female name. Not in comparison with a country's population, this name is the most popular in India, Nigeria, and China. Much more frequently, Dangan is the last name as well as the forename.
