Full Circle

Interestingly, the name has come full circle, entering Israeli Hebrew as the name [..] Shon, which derives from English Shawn, which derives from Irish Seán, which derives from French Jean, which derives from Latin Johann (variants: Iohann and Ivan v is pronounced as 'u'), a simplification of Johannes, which derives from Greek Ιωαννης, Iōhannēs, which was loaned from Mishnaic Hebrew [..] Yôḥānān during the Second Temple Period, after John the Apostle.
