Shadrach was the Babylonian name given to Hananiah after he, Daniel and their two companions (Mishael + Azariah) had been taken to Babylon (Daniel 1:3-20)(Daniel 2:48, 49). The Babylonian meaning is unknown. His HEBREW name, Hananiah, however, means: "Jah Has Shown Favor; Jah Has Been Gracious."

(Jah is the shortened form of Yahweh(or Jehovah)God's name)

Many Hebrew names ending in 'ah' or 'jah' contain this form of the Divine name in them.
