Whole or universal and God is gracious
A compound name combining Emma, of Germanic origin meaning 'whole' or 'universal', with Jane, a feminine form of John meaning 'God is gracious'. While both components are deeply traditional, the combined form is a modern creation that offers a vintage, double-barreled feel. It has gained some traction as parents look for unique ways to honor family members named Emma or Jane.
