Joann is a feminine name derived from the Hebrew name Yochanan, meaning "God is gracious." It's a variant of Joanne or Joan, all stemming from the male name John. Popular throughout the mid-20th century in the United States, Joann reached its peak usage in the 1930s-1950s, reflecting the era's preference for clear, straightforward names. The name carries a classic, unpretentious quality that balances femininity with strength. While less commonly given to newborns today, Joann maintains a timeless appeal and recognition. Many notable women including actresses, athletes, and artists have borne this name, contributing to its enduring character. The spelling variant with no 'e' at the end gives it a slightly more streamlined appearance than Joanne, though both forms have been widely used.
