Jehan is a masculine name with medieval origins, representing an Old French variant of 'Jean,' which itself derives from the Hebrew name 'Yochanan' meaning 'God is gracious.' Popular during the Middle Ages in France, Jehan appears in historical documents and literature from that period. The name fell out of common usage by the 17th century when the modern form 'Jean' became standard. Today, Jehan has a distinctly antique and romantic quality, occasionally chosen by parents with an interest in medieval history or French heritage. Though rare in contemporary usage, it carries a sophisticated air and connects its bearer to a rich cultural history spanning several centuries.
