About the name Ioannis
Ioannis belongs to the Biblical & Christian and Greek tradition. Its roots are documented, even though its precise meaning is not recorded in the standard references — an honest gap we prefer to a confident guess.
In the United States, Ioannis first appears in Social Security records in 1964. It climbed to its best-ever rank of #1677 in 1981, and in 2024 35 babies received the name — 1,370 in total since 1880. Those are the official counts, not estimates.
