Sean means John in Gaelic

Ivan means John is Russian

Johanne (I like that one) means John in I think German

Ian means John in Celtic or Scottish

Hans mean John in Dutch

Sion means John in Welch...I kinda like that one too!!

Zane is considered a varriant of John (that's my son's middle name!!)



I hope that helps! Good luck and best wishes on the new baby!

Don't have any suggestions, other than I like Gianni. It's a good Italian name.
