Meaning & origin
Shevonne is an Anglicized spelling of Siobhán, the traditional Irish feminine form of John. It first appeared in U.S. records in 1955 and enjoyed a modest peak in 1979, though it never broke into the top 1000 names. Since the 1970s, its usage has remained stable but very rare, with no recorded surge in later decades. The name has not been strongly associated with any particular region or ethnic group within the United States, as its top states list is empty in the data. Its rarity gives it a distinctive quality, appealing to parents seeking a name with clear Irish roots and a soft, melodic sound.
Shevonne is an Anglicized spelling of Siobhán, the Irish feminine form of Seán, which itself derives from the Hebrew name Yochanan meaning 'God is gracious.' The name Siobhán has been used in Ireland for centuries, with the Anglicized form Shevonne emerging in the mid-20th century, particularly in Irish diaspora communities. It gained modest popularity in the United States during the 1970s.
