Best Answer

Being as Nahuatl is a Mesoamerican language and thus evolved completely separately from the European languages that developed the "John group of names"(John, Jean, Jan, Juan etc.) There isn't even a really comparable sound to "j" in the nahuatl language. However, one of the most common Nahuatl names, Yaotl, could be subsituted, as it would likely have been a generic name, although it's meaning is "warrior" or "war." The name John means "God is gracious."

Of course, given the extreme Spanish influence on modern Nahuatl, you could simply use a Spanish equivalent of John(Such as Juan)
