Shavonne is a unique and beautiful name of French origin. It is derived from the French word "chauvon," which means "little calf." The name Shavonne is often associated with elegance, grace, and charm. Historically, it has been used in France for centuries but was not particularly popular until the 20th century when it began to gain recognition internationally. Today, Shavonne remains a distinctive choice for parents seeking a sophisticated yet approachable name for their daughter.
The name Shavonne was quite popular from the mid-1970s to the late-1980s, with a peak of 62 births in 1977 and reaching over 200 births annually between 1978 and 1980. However, its popularity declined significantly thereafter, dropping below 50 births per year after 1994, and averaging around 10 births per year from the late 1990s onwards. Despite this decline, Shavonne has remained a distinct name with a total of 2951 births recorded over its history.
