Meaning & History
Modern German name of uncertain origin.
As a masculine name it has been suggested to be a modern German variant transcription of the Arabic name YOUNES and YUNUS. Also a connection with the Roman name JUNIUS has been debated, as well as a borrowing of the Old Swedish name JUNIS.
As a feminine name it is almost certainly a variant of JUNIA, altered along the lines of LOVIS. (In some rare cases it might be intended to reflect the English pronunciation of EUNICE, of which it is a homophone)
