Yahya (Arabic: يحيى, romanized: Yaḥyā), also spelled Yehya, is an Arabic male given name.
It is an Arabic form of the given name John, originally Aramaic Yohanan (Yəhôḥānān
יְהוֹחָנָן‎ "YHWH is gracious"), i.e. primarily John the Baptist, who is known as
Yahya ibn Zakariyya in Islam, and is considered a prophet in Islam. For this reason, Yahya is a comparatively common name in the Muslim world.
