A given name, typically feminine, the French form of the name Joan or Jane.
From the Hebrew name Yochanan (God is gracious), which became Johanna in Latin, then Jeanne in French. The name traveled across languages, adapting its sound and spelling as it moved through different cultures.
Jeanne is forever linked to history's most famous bearer—Joan of Arc, who was called 'Jeanne d'Arc' in French. Her name became so iconic that it carries overtones of courage and conviction, especially in French-speaking cultures.
