Meaning & origin
Ivann is a modern respelling of the classic Slavic name Ivan, which derives from the Hebrew Yochanan, meaning 'God is gracious.' First recorded in the United States in 1993, it reached its peak popularity in 2018, though it remains extremely rare. The double 'n' ending positions it alongside other contemporary coinages like Breann and Deann. Since 2017, its usage has been declining. In its most recent year, 2025, it ranked 12,008, with roughly 1 in every 341,615 newborn boys receiving the name. The trajectory shows a falling trend, suggesting that while the name enjoyed a brief moment in the late 2010s, it is now receding. No U.S. state reported concentrated usage, reflecting its scattered and uncommon status. For parents seeking a unique variant of Ivan with a modern twist, Ivann offers a distinctive choice.
