Tutki henkilöitä nimeltä Lisa Johdotter

The last name Johdotter has Scandinavian origins, particularly linked to Sweden and Norway, where it is derived from the patronymic naming tradition, meaning "daughter of Johan" or "daughter of John." The name combines "Joh," a variant of Johan, which itself is derived from the Hebrew name Yochanan, meaning "God is gracious." Historically, surnames like Johdotter were used to denote lineage and familial connections, often reflecting the characteristics or occupations of the male ancestor, in this case, likely indicating a family connection to someone named Johan. Variations of the name can be found in different cultures, such as Johansdotter in Sweden, which follows a similar patronymic structure, and Johansen in Denmark, which is a more common surname derived from the same root. The use of "dotter" signifies a female lineage, distinguishing it from male counterparts like Johdsson, which means "son of Johan." This naming convention highlights the historical significance of family ties in Scandinavian culture.
