Yannick
Yannick is a first name that originated in Brittany, France, where the combination of its two Breton language parts, Yann and Ick, results in the meaning of Little John or Petit Jean in French. It is used as a first name mostly for men and is of use, notably, in French-speaking countries like France, (a part of) Belgium, Switzerland (Romandy), Canada (Quebec), and former French African colonies.
