After Daniel interpreted King Nebuchadnezzar's dream he put in high position making him ruler of the whole province of Babylon and put Daniel in charge of all the wise men. King Nebuchadnezzar also gave him many gifts.
The did not have first and last names like we do now. However the "full name" back then would be some like this :
" Daniel, Son of Morg" or "Daniel, from the house of Morg"
Later in history we started to drop the "son of" of "from the house of" and just kept the name as out "last name".
So the prophet Daniel's full name is just Daniel. :-)
Suspiciously, King Nebuchadnezzar's son and successor, Belshazzar, had never heard of Daniel. Because of this, Daniel was given the opportunity to rebuke Belshazzar and describe the greatness of the Jewish God. Even more suspiciously, when the Persian king overthrew Belshazzar and occupied Babylon, he promptly made Daniel chief president over the whole Persian kingdom.
Scholars have long pointed out historical errors in the Book of Daniel, and Leonard J Greenspoon (The Oxford History of the Biblical World, Between Alexandria and Antioch: Jews and Judaism in the Hellenistic Period) describes the book as a Jewish novel. There is no mention in the Babylonian or Persian records of a Jew who rose to high rank, and Daniel is otherwise unknown so must therefore be regarded as simply a character in the Book of Daniel.

He was a prophet and a Kohen.

Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was a shepherd and a trader.
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was shepherd and trader
he was a prophet read the book of Haggai in the Bible if you don't believe me!
Jeremiah was called to be a prophet before he was born. In Jeremiah 1:6 it is written, "Ah, Soverign Lord," I said. "I do not know how to speak; I am only a child." This tells us that he was young when he began being a prophet. His father was Hilkiah who was a priest. Jeremiah probably had no occupation due to his young age and helping his father with his priestly duties. The Bible makes no mention of an occupation.
Paul was a tent maker. Samuel was a prophet. I'm not sure being a prophet is an 'occupation', but I imagine that people would have given goods to Samuel. Isaiah was a prophet of the kings and likely was taken care of by royalty. Moses was a shepard, but spent most of his minstry walking around the desert. Amos was a shepherd. Incomplete I know, but give you an idea
Before the Divine Revelations began, Prophet Muhammad, God bless him and grant him peace, was a merchant.
First of all Christianity is not an occupation, also Jesus was a Jew until the moment of his crucifixion.(the "last supper" is actually Jesus and his friends sitting down to a sedar meal(a Jewish tradition)) anyways Jesus occupation before becoming a prophet was carpentry( he worked with wood)
This is unknown ,although he may have had a connection with the royal house of Israel, as indicated in the genealogy given in Zephaniah 1:1.
