You currently have Ioane listed as being archaic in Georgia, i.e. it is no longer in use. That is incorrect: you can still find living Georgian bearers on Facebook and LinkedIn, so the name is just rare (at least when compared to Ivane) instead of archaic: [noted -ed]https://ge.linkedin.com/pub/dir/Ioane/+/ge-0-Georgi%C3%AB (lists only bearers living in Georgia)

The name subsequently underwent the following changes in Georgian:იოჰანე (Iohane) ⟶ იოანე (Ioane) ⟶ იოვანე (Iovane) ⟶ ივანე (Ivane)With the exception of Iohane, all of these forms are still in use. Ivane is the most common, followed by Ioane and finally Iovane.Sources used:
