SOS- Please help me with a name!

Okay, so we want a name with the same meaning as JOHN (god's gracious gift; gracious gift; gracious) that isn't *too far out there* IF we have a boy. Any help is GREATLY appreciated!

Try this:
http://www.babynames.com/Names/search_result.php
With the link the pp gave you - do an advanced search on "only this meaning"...
a couple that come up are:
Ean
Ian
Ivan
Giovanni
Sean
Shane
Evan - this doesn't come up in the gracious search, but it means god is good
You might have to poke around a bit and try a couple of different meaning searches...
Good Luck
you might also want to do searches (not on that website, I don't think) but on derivitives of john
Ian
Sean
Zane
Nathaniel

Iain/Ian and Ivan are my favourite forms of John. :)
