There are many spellings in the Bible. Matthew 1(11&12) according to the
genealogy? Goes back to Abraham. (11) and Josiah begatJechonias and his
brethren, , about the time they were deported to Babylon. He eventually
became the King of Judah in December of 598 at the age if 18 yrs and reigned
for three months and ten days. Other spellings  are Jeconiah, Coniah,
Jehoiachin. In
contemporary inscriptions the name appears as Yaukin, which might be
anglicized to "Jauchin".

Hi everybody,
JOACHIM is the German, English and French spelling of the 
old-testamentarian king JOJACHIM of Juda (-609 to -597 when he had to 
subjugate to the Babylonian army of king Nebukadnezar). A second 
biblical event of JOJACHIM is the father of St. Mary (Saint, grandfather 
of Jesus; his grandmother was St. Anna). The Italian spelling is 
GIOACCHINO (think of Rossini), the spanish one JOAQUMN, the Portugese 
one JOAQUIM. The abbrevated German forms are JOCHEN, JOCHEM, JOCHIM and 
ACHIM, JOCKEL and JOCKI (Swiss German). The Skandinavian abbrevation is 
KIM, the Russian one AKIM. An English abbrevation is JACK though more 
common for JACOB[US].
