Sheaunna Origin and Meaning

The name Sheaunna is a girl's name.

Sheaunna is a feminine name that appears to be a modern variant spelling of Shawna or Shauna, which themselves are feminine forms of Sean/Shaun, the Irish form of John. The name ultimately derives from Hebrew, meaning 'God is gracious.' The distinctive spelling with 'eau' adds a unique visual element, possibly influenced by French orthography, while maintaining the same pronunciation as Shawna. This name emerged primarily in the late 20th century in the United States as parents sought more creative spellings of familiar names. While not among the most common names, Sheaunna offers a way to personalize a recognizable name with Irish roots while creating a more distinctive written form.
