Hello,
I was wondering if anyone knew how the name John became Evan in Welsh. Evan is my brother's name and he never really understood how the Evan and John were related, and I can't seem to find a website that can tell me. I know that Biblical names would often be re-written when a new culture adopted the Bible, but a this doesn't seem as obvious as, say, Peter to the Spanish Pedro.
