Dejuan

Dejuan Origin and Meaning

The name Dejuan is a boy's name.

Dejuan appears to be a modern variation of the name Juan, which is the Spanish form of John, derived from Hebrew Yochanan meaning 'God is gracious.' The 'De' prefix may have emerged through several influences: it could be inspired by French 'de' (meaning 'of'), reflect naming patterns seen in other names beginning with 'De-', or represent a creative variation seeking distinctive sounds. The name gained modest usage in the United States beginning in the 1970s and saw increased popularity through the 1990s, though it has never ranked among the most common names nationally. Dejuan represents naming patterns that blend traditional elements with modern innovations. Pronunciation typically follows 'deh-WAHN' or 'deh-JUAN' patterns. Usage data shows the name has maintained consistent though limited popularity across diverse communities in the United States since its emergence.
