Jonahs Origin and Meaning

The name Jonahs is a boy's name.

Jonahs is a variation of the Hebrew name Jonah, which means 'dove' and carries biblical significance. While the traditional Jonah appears in the Old Testament as a prophet sent to Nineveh, this specific spelling with the added 's' is considerably less common. The variant Jonahs may have emerged as a patronymic form or simply as a modern spelling variation. This masculine name shares the gentle symbolism of the dove—representing peace, hope, and the Holy Spirit in Christian traditions. The uncommon spelling offers a subtle distinction while maintaining the recognizable sound and heritage of the original. Jonahs might appeal to parents seeking a familiar biblical name with a slightly unique presentation.
