Origin:Hebrew
Other Origin(s):Indian
Meaning:God's grace; Thought
Although contested in its origins, Yochana is an undeniably beautiful name. If taken as the feminine counterpart of Yochanan, it means “God’s grace” in Hebrew. However, in many Indian languages, Yochana means “thought.” While it is most unusual for the worlds of science and religion to mix, this moniker assumes otherwise. Suppose you’d like to give your little one a spiritual foundation but also an unconditional support to find their own path, Yochana is a fitting choice for the open-minded and liberal family.
