Jandino is in Origin.

Jandino is a modern compound given name found in the Dutch Caribbean (notably Curaçao, Aruba, Bonaire) and the Netherlands. It most plausibly blends Jan - the Dutch form of John, from Hebrew Yohanan meaning “God is gracious” - with Dino, a widely used Italian/Spanish hypocoristic that began as a short form of names such as Bernardino or Constantino and later stood alone. In this hybrid, the primary meaning derives from Jan (“God is gracious”), while Dino contributes an affectionate, lively tone rather than a single fixed meaning.

Used mainly from the late 20th century onward, Jandino remains uncommon outside Dutch-speaking and Caribbean diasporic communities, but gained broader visibility through Dutch-Curaçaoan entertainer Jandino Asporaat. Variant renderings include Jan-Dino and Jan Dino; related names are Jan and Dino. Common short forms are Dino or Jan. Pronunciation typically follows Dutch: YAHN-dee-no. The name travels smoothly across Dutch, Papiamentu, and Spanish contexts.
