When I look up the origin and meaning of the name 'John'... well, it just doesn't seem to apply to you so, Johnny you are!
JOHN
GENDER: Masculine
USAGE: English, Biblical
PRONOUNCED: JAHN (English) [key]
Meaning & History
English form of Iohannes, the Latin form of the Greek name ??????? (Ioannes), itself derived from the Hebrew name ???????? (Yochanan) meaning "YAHWEH is gracious". This name owes its popularity to two New Testament characters, both highly revered saints. The first is John the Baptist, a Jewish ascetic who was considered the forerunner of Jesus Christ. The second is the apostle John, who is also traditionally regarded as the author of the fourth Gospel and Revelation.
Do you find the questions too difficult to answer, given your earlier comments? I notice you tend to
disregard them.
I have no problem with 'Johnny'. Hell, it's kinda sweet!
