Danny, ¿dónde nació Ud?
As I commented before, Leliadoura is right. This seems an informal context.
The one I gave you is formal, but most likely is not the case in your query.

Y tú, ¿de dónde eres, Danny?
It's conversational, casual style. It might be just the way to say it in this case. Anyway, after 30 years or more, I'm still being asked this very question at least 3 times a day.
