Jokanaan Name meanings & History

Jokanaan is a variant of the Hebrew name "Yochanan", which means "God is gracious". Form of Yochanan used by Oscar Wilde for John the Baptist in his play 'Salomé' (1891). Unlike most depictions of John the Baptist, Jokanaan is young and clean-shaven, with black hair, white skin and red lips. Salome requests to touch his hair, then his skin, then kiss his lips. When he refuses, she demands his head. Jokanaan is primarily used as a first name for boys, and has a strong biblical and cultural association. It is a unique and interesting name that could be appealing to those who are looking for something different or unconventional.
