Shavonne

Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Shavonne: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 1990.

Shavonne is a modern feminine name, primarily an Anglicised form of the Irish name Siobhán, which itself derives from the French Jehanne and ultimately from the Hebrew Yohannah, meaning "God is gracious." A famous bearer is Shavonne Malott, a Canadian actress known for her role on the television series _Dark Matter_. While no major places are directly named after a Shavonne, its root, Siobhán, is linked to the numerous places across Scotland and Ireland bearing the name "Shaw" or "Sheehan" from the same Gaelic origin. As a variant, Shavonne enjoyed a peak of popularity in the United States during the 1970s and 80s, but it has always been a rare choice in Scotland, offering a distinctive twist on the classic Siobhán.
