Jeaneen
Jeaneen Origin and Meaning
Jeaneen is a feminine name that represents a variation of Jean or Jeanne, with ultimate roots in Hebrew through the name John, meaning 'God is gracious'. This elaborated version with the '-een' suffix emerged primarily in the mid-20th century in America, reflecting the trend toward creating distinctive variations of classic names. Jeaneen peaked in popularity during the 1950s-1960s but has since become uncommon. The name has a vintage American quality while maintaining the dignified character of its classic root. Its rhythmic three-syllable pattern and soft ending create a melodious flow. Parents today might choose Jeaneen to honor a relative named Jean or Jeanne while giving a slightly more elaborate variation, or for its mid-century charm combined with traditional roots.
