The name Jonah in Greek is derived from the Hebrew name Yonah, which means "dove." In the Greek translation of the Old Testament, the Septuagint, Jonah is referred to as Ἰωνᾶς (Ionas). The symbolism of the dove often represents peace and purity, which adds a deeper significance to the character of Jonah in biblical narratives.
