Meaning and background
The story behind Juancho
Juancho is a diminutive of Juan in Behind the Name's main entry. The linked Juan entry identifies its Spanish form through Iohannes and the wider John name family, and specifically lists Juancho among the Spanish diminutives. That gives the nickname a documented relationship to a longer given name. The ending does not require a separate invented translation, and choosing Juancho for a dog does not require that the dog also have Juan as a formal name.
