masculine · Basque origin
Ganix is a Basque masculine given name functioning as the regional Basque form of John, itself ultimately derived from the Hebrew Yohanan, meaning God is gracious. The name belongs to the same vast family of cognates spread across European languages, including Jon, Ivan, Juan, and Jean, all tracing back to the same Hebrew root through Latin Iohannes and Greek Ioannes. Its use is concentrated among Basque speakers as a distinctly local adaptation of one of the most widespread given names in the Christian world.
