Name heard today..not sure what I think of it.

Today I met a little boy named Jo.ven, periods for google reasons. I don't know what I think of it yet...I think I like it for some reason. Like a GP name..

The parents names weren't Jo and Evan, haha

EDIT: I just researched the name. Joven is an alternate spelling of the Slavic name Jovan, meaning "God is Gracious". I really like it.

It sounds like a name off star trek...or game of thrones. NMS, for sure. I am a fan of some unique names but don't like that one.

I LOVE the meaning, and joven is not too bad. Probably because I know a Jovenna but I remember hating her name at first....

So was it said Joe-van or Yo-van? 

I actually would have that it was a form of Jovan because I know that's a form of John.  I've never heard it said but I know Johan (German) is Yo-han, so I was just curious.

I can't figure out how to pronounce this name. Is it an English "J" like Joeseph or a Spanish "J" like Jose?

ETA: Mobile bump won't let me accent the "e" in Jose :[
