Parents look for inspiration from various sources: from family tradition to lists of the most popular names.
When choosing, however, it is worth remembering not only the sound, but also the meaning of the name, as well as its foreign equivalents.
However, if you prefer to choose a name for your child yourself, you may be interested in one of the most universal names. It is John. This name has equivalents in as many as 32 languages and enjoys uninterrupted popularity.
The meaning of the name John
John has its roots in the Bible, and last year it was ranked second on the list of the most popular male names. It comes from Hebrew and came to Latin through Greek. In Hebrew, Yochanan means "Yahweh is gracious."
People with the name John are considered to be men with an analytical mind. Although they do not avoid company, John values mostly moments spent alone.
Even as a little boy, he is calm, serious, and does not seek conflict or publicity. He avoids being the centre of attention. Instead, he values family life and is willing to do a lot for his wife and children.
