Geovani

Meaning of Geovani

Geovani is a male given name of Italian-Spanish etymology, constituting a phonetic variant of Giovanni and ultimately deriving from the Hebrew יוֹחָנָן (Yochanan), which translates as “Yahweh is gracious.” In Spanish contexts it is enunciated as heh-oh-VAH-nee (/xeoˈβani/), whereas in American English usage it adopts the form jee-oh-VAH-nee (/dʒiˈoʊvəni/). Statistical analysis of United States Social Security data from 1974 through 2024 demonstrates that Geovani has maintained a modest yet persistent presence, peaking at rank 647 in 1974 and subsequently oscillating between the mid-700s and low-900s—most recently positioned at 903 with 21 births in 2024. These trends reflect not only the name’s enduring link to Christian biblical heritage—most notably John the Baptist—but also its appeal within multicultural Anglo-American naming conventions.
