Dauda is a male given name and surname commonly used among West African Muslims, particularly within the Hausa and Yoruba communities. The name is a localized form of the Arabic Dāwūd (داوود), which originates from the Hebrew name Dāwīḏ (דָּוִד), meaning "beloved." The name has deep religious significance in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, as Dāwūd (David) is recognized as a prophet and king in the Bible and the Qur'an.
