Shawna is a feminine given name. It is a variant of Shauna, derived from Shawn, an anglicisation of Seán, an Irish Gaelic name. Seán is derived from the Norman-French "Jehan" (Jean), which itself is a variant of the Biblical Hebrew name "Yohanan".
The first name has been present throughout the last century although fluctuating in use. It ranked 882nd in popularity for females of all ages in a 2000-2003 Social Security Administration statistic and 490th in a 1990 US Sample.
