Chevonn is a modern English given name most likely a phonetic respelling of Irish Siobhán (pronounced shi-VAWN), itself the Gaelic form of Joan/Jeanne from Hebrew Yohanan, “God is gracious.” The initial Ch- signals an English “sh” sound, while -vonn mirrors the Irish bh (v) and the -án ending. Thus Chevonn carries the long-standing biblical meaning with a contemporary twist.

Use of Chevonn and close spellings rose in the late 20th century in the US and UK, especially in communities favoring creative orthography, and is predominantly feminine. It is sometimes mistaken as related to French Yvonne (from yew), but the roots differ. Common relatives and variants include Siobhán, Shivonne, Shavonne, Chavonne, Chevonne, Shevon, Shevaun, and Shavon; nicknames include Von/Vonnie. Typical pronunciations are shə-VAWN or she-VAHN.
