Ιωάννη (John) is a common name in Greek culture, often associated with several important historical and religious figures. One of the most notable is Ιωάννης ο Βαπτιστής (John the Baptist), who is recognized in Christianity for baptizing Ιησούς (Jesus) and preaching about repentance. He is celebrated for his role in the New Testament and is considered a prophet in both Christianity and Islam. Another significant figure is Ιωάννης ο Ευαγγελιστής (John the Evangelist), one of the twelve apostles of Jesus. He is traditionally credited with writing the Κατά Ιωάννην Ευαγγέλιον (Gospel of John) and the Αποκάλυψη (Book of Revelation). His writings emphasize the divinity of Christ and are central to Christian theology.
