Johanna is the feminine form of Johannes, which is the German version of John. Do you think that Johanna would be sufficient, then, to honor my grandfather John and my grandmother Juanita? (I've just been considering names for that, and since I might not have any boys to name John, Johanna might be a good way to honor both my grandparents at the same time. If I have any boys in my life time, on of them will probably have the name John. But as for girls, I don't really like the name Johnna and I'm not a big fan of Juanita.)

I'm also wondering about name combos for Johanna. I'm not sure I would use Johanna as a first name. (BTW, I'm American, so whether it's right or wrong, I'm pronouncing Johanna the same as Joanna.)

How does Sophia Johanna sound?
Any other suggestions?

Thanks.
