Antjuan is English in Origin.

Antjuan is a modern American given name, especially seen in African-American communities. It blends the look and sound of French-derived Antoine/Antwan (from Latin Antonius) with the Spanish name Juan. Through Antonius, the underlying meaning is uncertain; many sources render it "priceless, of inestimable worth," and a later folk link connects Anthony to Greek anthos "flower," though that is not original.

Appearing in U.S. records from the late twentieth century, Antjuan reflects trends toward personalized spellings and cross-linguistic style. Usage remains uncommon but recognizable across the United States. Variants and near-variants include Antwan, Antuan, and Antwuan; related cognates include Antoine (French), Antonio (Spanish/Italian/Portuguese), and Anthony (English). Juan itself is unrelated etymologically (from John, "Yahweh is gracious") but likely shapes the spelling and pronunciation of this hybrid form.
