"Variant of Giovanni"
The name Yovani is commonly a male name from the "Italian" origin.
Yovani is a Spanish-language form of the Italian name Giovanni, with the Italian Gi- written as Y- to match Spanish spelling. It belongs to the same family as John, which derives from Hebrew Yochanan. The final -i of the Italian original is kept, which distinguishes it from the Spanish form Juan.
Giovanni means "God is gracious".
The pronunciation of Yovani is yo-VAH-nee.
