Johah is of Hebrew origin, meaning 'Yahweh is merciful'. It is a unique variant spelling of the more common Jonah or Jonathan. This name has historical significance as it appears in the Bible, where Jonah was swallowed by a whale. However, Johah is not as widely recognized and therefore offers a distinctive choice for parents seeking an unusual yet meaningful name.
The name Johah has seen variable popularity over time, with the highest number of births recorded in 1997 and the lowest in 1987. The total number of births over this period is 29.
