The name "Jo" is generally considered to be a short form or a nickname of various names that start with "Jo-", such as Josephine, Joanna, or Jocelyn. It is derived from the Hebrew name "Yehoshua" meaning "the Lord is salvation" or "God is salvation".
The name "Lynn" is derived from an Old English word meaning "lake" or "waterfall". It was commonly used as a given name in the United States during the mid-20th century.
