The motto of Puerto Rico is “Joannes Est Nomen Eius”, which translates to “John is his name” in English. This motto is derived from the Bible, specifically from the Gospel of Luke, where it refers to John the Baptist.
Puerto Rico adopted this motto as a reflection of its Christian heritage and the importance of faith in the culture and history of the island. The motto is prominently displayed on the Puerto Rican coat of arms, symbolizing the island’s identity and values.
