HelpRe: Johannah
in reply to a message by Shiply
You don't need the "h" on the end. Johanna isn't Jo + Hannah. It's the feminine form of Johannes.
Johanna, which I pronounce "jo-HAN-uh," is a charming, nostalgic, grand and stately name. It was my great-grandmother's name. My Aunt Joan was named after her, using the more stream-lined, Art Deco, style that was popular when she was born in the 1920's. And now Johanna's frills are popular again. Everything old is new again. :-)
