Shevaun

Shevaun is a feminine name that serves as a variant of Siobhan, with Irish Gaelic origins. The original Siobhan derives from the Irish name Síobhán, meaning "God is gracious." This anglicized spelling makes the pronunciation more intuitive for English speakers while preserving its Celtic heritage. Shevaun gained modest popularity in English-speaking countries during the mid-20th century as interest in Irish names grew. While never extremely common, it appeals to parents seeking a distinctive name with traditional roots. The name carries a sophisticated and slightly exotic quality while remaining accessible in pronunciation.

Pronounced shuh-VAWN.

As of October 2026, Shevaun ranked #12711 in US births in 1990 SSA, peaked at #5836 in 1984.
