A name of Hebrew origin transmitted via German, meaning 'God is gracious'.

Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Hanuš je západoslovanská podoba odvodená od nemeckého mena Hannes alebo Hans, ktoré vzniklo skrátením mena Johannes. To cez grécke a latinské podoby siaha k hebrejskému menu Jochánán (יוֹחָנָן) s významom „Boh je milostivý“ alebo „Boh prejavil milosť“. Zakončenie -uš je výsledkom slovanského hláskového a slovotvorného prispôsobenia.
