January 01, 1970

Shawn is a unisex given name, an anglicized spelling of the Irish name Seán. Alternate spellings include Shawne, Shaun and Sean. Notable people with the name include:

North American Usage edit

The name Shawn was widely used by the 1940s for children born in the United States. Along with spelling variants Sean and Shaun, the name was among the top 1,000 names for American boys by 1950 and, with all spellings combined, was a top 10 name for American boys in 1971. The popularity of actor Sean Connery increased use of the name. The name Shaun was popularized in the late 1970s by singer Shaun Cassidy. It has since declined in use but, with all spellings combined, remained among the 300 most popular names for newborn American boys in 2022. The name is also in use for girls in the United States, with Shawn the most widely used spelling, perhaps due to its similarity to the name Dawn. Shawn was among the top 1,000 names for American girls between 1948 and 1988 and was at peak popularity as a name for girls there in 1970.[1] Shawn is also in use for children of both sexes in Canada. Usage of this spelling of the name has been most common in North America.[2]
