Meaning and History: "Ata" means father and "jan" means soul in Turkmen Language. This name is given to a boy if his father or grandfather died earlier to mention their names. Usually it is not a official name but some prefer it as official as well. In some cases the name means "dear father" because the word "jan" has a second meaning as "dear".(Information originally submitted by user therealmergen)
