John Doe

"John Doe" is a placeholder name used in legal and governmental contexts to refer to an unidentified or generic person, often in cases involving legal issues or discussions. It represents an average male, much like "Jane Doe" is used for females. This term helps to simplify discussions, protect identities, or illustrate points without needing to specify an actual person's name. The use of "John Doe" often appears in court cases, medical documents, or situations where a person's identity is not known or needs to remain confidential.
