Origin: Hebrew

Meaning: God is gracious

Show your gratitude for having baby in your life with this Hebrew boy's name. Johanan means "God is gracious" and is a variation of John, which is about as classic as a name can get. Because of its similarities to the German name Johan, it has a vaguely European feel that helps to differentiate it from John, while still being a way that you can introduce your faith into baby's life.
