Shawnn is a unique, contemporary given name of American origin. A variant spelling of Sean, which is derived from the Irish name John, it means 'God is gracious.' Pronounced as SHAW-n, Shawnn first gained popularity in the 1970s and has since been used more frequently than its traditional counterpart. It projects a modern, individualistic image, often favored by parents seeking distinctive names for their children.
"The name Shawnn was quite popular from the late 1960s to the mid-1970s, with a peak of 10 babies named Shawnn in 1970."
