Johan

BoyDutch

Meaning

Origin: Dutch. Meaning: Gift from God.

Traits and personality

Under Pythagorean numerology, the initials A, J and S map to the number 1: an independent, self-sufficient personality with a natural leader's instinct — goal-driven, more inclined to blaze a trail than follow one. These are traditional readings, not a rule: everyone ends up becoming who they choose to be, whatever name they carry.
