Jo-Ann
(on Baby-namer.com)
Meaning:
Its source is Yochana, a Hebrew name meaning "God's grace."
Alternative Spellings: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
Narrative:
The Hebrew Yochana was translated into Latin as Joanna or Johanna. Over
time these developed into the Old French Jehan(n)e. At various points
this string of ancestors spun off many modern variations that have
enjoyed a great deal of popularity.Most
of them share the quality of simplicity. Whether we call to mind the
fictitious Jane Q. Public or the legendary Joan of Arc (Jeanne D'Arc in
French), these names seem to emerge from the heart of the people.
