Shanedra is an uncommon, yet striking female given name of American origin. It combines elements from 'Shane', traditionally a male name meaning 'God is Gracious' in Irish, and 'Andrea', a unisex name deriving from the Greek 'Andreas', meaning 'Manly' or 'Vigorous'. This blend results in Shanedra, a name that stands out for its unique composition while still maintaining a familiar ring. It's often spelled various ways, including Shandea and Shandrea, but the original spelling is Shanedra.
Shanedra peaked in popularity during the late 1980s with a total of 47 births between 1987 and 1990, but has since declined with only 12 births recorded from 1992 onwards.
