Jovanna
Meaning of Jovanna
Jovanna, pronounced yoh-VAHN-nah (/jo̞ˈvän.nä/), is an elegant Italian flourish on the ancient Hebrew name Yochanan, which means “Yahweh is gracious.” Like a sun-drenched melody drifting through a Venetian courtyard, it evokes warmth, generosity and a quietly confident spirit. Though still relatively rare in the United States—with just a couple dozen newborns bearing the name each year—Jovanna is steadily blossoming, climbing the rankings like a climbing vine on a villa wall. Parents who choose it often imagine a daughter whose presence unfolds with timeless grace, as comforting as a grandmother’s lullaby and as bright as an early-morning Amalfi sunrise.
