Shawntrice is an uncommon, unique, and memorable female given name of American origin. The name combines two elements: 'Shawn', which was initially a diminutive form of the Irish surname O'Sullivan meaning 'fierce-eyed' or 'dark-haired'; and '-trice', a feminine suffix found in names like Victoria and Beatrice. Thus, Shawntrice can be interpreted as a feminine form of Shawn or perhaps signifies someone who is fiercely independent or has dark hair. The name gained popularity in the United States during the latter half of the 20th century but remains relatively rare today. It offers parents an opportunity to give their child a distinctive name that stands out while still being recognizable and easy to pronounce.
