It depends on what language you are translating from and to...many names remain the same in several countries, and then change slightly in others, or drastically in others. My name is french, but when I actually try to translate it into French (on babelfish.com) it comes out meaning "Iron Ore"...not very romantic!

Some names are the same all over the world and some change. Nothing to be upset over. Johan

The boy's name Joao \joao\ is a variant of John.
Joao is a very rare male first name and a very rare surname (source: 1990 U.S. Census).

It would probably be John here or Jay.
