Ok, so we're having a hard time to decide on a name (its a boy). "Daddy" is John William the Second. though neither of us wants a John William the Third, we've toyed with the idea of a name that means John - NOT Jack, that is the dog. I know Jean in French, which I don't like. Giovanni in Italian, which I do like. Now usually "Dad" is called Johnny, which would be Gianni in Italian, also, very cute. Anyone have any other names that they know if, language not important here, that means John?

Sean means John in Gaelic
Ivan means John is Russian
Johanne (I like that one) means John in I think German
Ian means John in Celtic or Scottish
Hans mean John in Dutch
Sion means John in Welch...I kinda like that one too!!
Zane is considered a varriant of John (that's my son's middle name!!)
I hope that helps! Good luck and best wishes on the new baby!

I would tell you to go with Ian. It is an old or middle english form of John.

Don't have any suggestions, other than I like Gianni. It's a good Italian name.
