I like the name Johan because in my opinion, it's strong and suitable for a male of any age. However, the name Johan is overused in my country among Catholic/Christian people. We pronounce it with J or Y. The German variant Johann is also great.

I don’t understand why people think that Johan is a feminine name! Johan is a boy’s name. What is so wrong with Johana for a girl? Not every single male name should be feminine! It may be unique on a girl, but it’s also gender confusing too unless she looks really girly! Johan is only a boy’s name in my book! I think that Johan is a handsome name for a boy and it’s more unique than John. John is so popular right now!

I'd choose this name for my son either Johan or Jonah, and I wouldn't pronounce it Yo-hahn but Jo-Hahn. I like names that are not overly popular.
