Yo-han is a Korean masculine given name. Its meaning differs based on the
hanja used to write each syllable of the name. There are 28 hanja with the reading "yo" and 23 hanja with the reading "han" on the South Korean government's official list of hanja which may be registered for use in given names.[1] Yo-han is also the official Korean equivalent of the Biblical name
John.[2] As such, it is sometimes used as a given name by
Korean Christians, particularly
Korean Catholics.
