Johnna

Johnna Origin and Meaning

The name Johnna is a girl's name.

Johnna is a feminine variation of John, itself derived from the Hebrew name Yochanan, meaning "God is gracious." This modern adaptation maintains the strength of the original while adding a distinctly feminine ending. Though less common than other John derivatives like Joanna or Joan, Johnna has maintained a steady presence in the United States since the mid-20th century. The name peaked in popularity during the 1970s but remains an appealing choice for parents seeking a unique name with traditional roots. Johnna offers the nickname options of Jo or Jonna, and its biblical connection provides it with a sense of timelessness while still feeling contemporary.
