Joonas is a masculine Finnish variant of the biblical name Jonah (or Jonas), which derives from Hebrew and means 'dove'. This name is particularly popular in Finland and Estonia, where it represents a traditional choice with strong cultural roots. The double 'o' spelling reflects Finnish orthography and pronunciation patterns. Joonas carries the biblical associations of its root name—connecting to the story of Jonah and the whale—while maintaining a distinctive Nordic character. The name experienced popularity peaks in Finland during the 1980s and 1990s but remains in consistent use. Outside the Nordic countries, Joonas is rare, giving it an exotic quality while still being relatively straightforward to pronounce for English speakers.
