In French, we use Bonjour to say hello to everyone. It can be used in the morning and the afternoon. It fits for an old person, a young one, a man, a woman, your boss or a dear friend. Of course there are casual ways to say it too. We'll see them in good time.

Jean is a French masculine name. You might want to translate it John if you’re talking about the prophet.
Bonjour : Hello

Je suis : I am
