Chivonne is English in Origin.
Chivonne is a modern Anglicized respelling of the Irish Gaelic Siobhán, typically pronounced shi-VON/shi-VAWN. Siobhán is the Irish form of Joan/Jeanne, ultimately deriving from the Hebrew Yohanan, meaning “God is gracious.” The spelling Chivonne captures the familiar “shiv-on” sound while adopting the -vonne ending recognizable in English and French names, which has led some to associate it with Yvonne despite its Irish roots.
Siobhán occurs in medieval Irish records and saw strong revival in the 20th century, helped by Irish literature and figures such as actress Siobhán McKenna; respelled forms like Chivonne spread in the UK, North America, and other English-speaking regions from the 1970s onward. Variant spellings include Siobhán, Shivonne, Shavonne, Chevonne, and Chyvonne; related forms are Joan, Johanna, Joanne, and Jeanne. Informal nicknames include Shiv and Vonnie.
