Seanan, of Irish origin, is a unisex given name that means "God is gracious." It has been used predominantly as a female name in recent years but was historically more common for males. The name Seanan is often spelled phonetically as Shaneen when used for females, although both spellings are considered acceptable. Seanan is sometimes confused with the similar-sounding Sean, which is typically given to boys. However, Seanan has its own unique charm and is a beautiful choice for parents looking for an uncommon but meaningful name for their child.
"Seanan saw a notable increase in usage between 1999 and 2003, with only 6 births recorded in the former year compared to 12 in the latter."
