Hi
I would like to know where the name Joachim comes from. ( it is my grandmother's name ) She comes from France but we think it might be Juif. I would really like more information.
Thanks
Jackie

JOACHIM m English, French, German, Polish, Biblical
Means "established by YAHWEH" in Hebrew. In the Old Testament Joachim is a king of Judah. In the apocryphal Gospel of James, Saint Joachim was the husband of Saint Anne and the father of the Virgin Mary.
