Do baby a big favor and Hanss them a name that they—and everyone around them—will love. A variant of Hans, it is considered of German and Dutch origin and a diminutive of the Hebrew Johannes. Part of a massive etymological root of names, Johannes stems from one of the world’s most popular names “John.” This link gives Hanss its meaning of “God is gracious” and a clear connection to the spiritual. Perhaps you plan to raise baby in faith, or you’re taking a more secular path—regardless, Hanss will prove a fitting title for your bundle of joy to grace the world with.
