The disciple John is not called John the evangelist in the Bible. He is not to be confused with John the Baptist, who was not a disciple, but was a cousin of Jesus.

John (the evangelist) wrote the books of John, 1 John, 2 John, 3 John, and Revelation. He referred to himself as "the beloved disciple" in his book John.

Jesus found John and his brother James as they were fishing, and called them both to follow him.

Matthew 4:21-22 And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets; and he called them. And they immediately left the ship and their father, and followed him.
