ArchivesName Origin
My brother came up with the name Cinjun for his new baby boy. I am trying to figure out the origin of this name. I know Cinjun Tate lead singer for Remy Zero's and was married to Alyssa Milano. Also I've heard the following.
Excerpt from "Behind the name"
"Sinjun"... This is actually "St. John " which, as a name, is pronounced in Great Britain as "Sinjun". The name also appears spelled phonetically as "Sinjon" and "Sinjun". The "meaning" of the name is actually a way in which Roman Catholic families honored St. John the Baptist.
Google Answer
It looks as though its an attempt to represent phonetically the given
name St. John.
Any other ideas?

Unless there exists an entirely separate ethnic origin for this (I'm naturally thinking Indian), you must be right on target.
This is equivical with "St. Claire" becoming "Sinclair."
