Shequana is an uncommon, distinctive female given name of African origin. Derived from the Mandinka language spoken primarily in West Africa, it translates to 'God is pleased' or 'God is satisfied'. This name has gained some recognition in the United States, where it was first recorded in the early 1970s, but remains relatively rare.
"Shequana saw a peak in popularity with seven births each in 1986 and 1995. The name's usage dipped slightly between these years, with six births recorded in 1987 and 1991, and five in 1992. Overall, there were thirty-one babies named Shequana born over this period."
