Joahan Origin and Meaning

The name Joahan is a boy's name.

Joahan is a masculine name that appears to be a variation of Johan or Johannes, which are Germanic and Scandinavian forms of John. These names ultimately derive from the Hebrew name Yochanan, meaning 'God is gracious.' The distinctive spelling of Joahan sets it apart while maintaining connections to this widespread name family. Relatively uncommon, Joahan offers the familiarity of traditional Johan while providing a unique identity. The name has a warm, approachable quality with its soft 'j' sound and flowing syllables. Though not frequently found in name popularity charts, it appeals to parents seeking a name with historical roots but a contemporary feel that won't be shared by many others in their child's peer group.
