Kesauna is a modern American given name, most likely a creative blend built on the popular Ke- prefix and the element -shauna, linking it to Shauna/Shawna, the Irish feminine form of Sean (from Hebrew Yohanan, “God is gracious”). In some usage it also overlaps with the Keisha/Lakeisha/Keziah line, giving an alternate folk meaning of “cassia” or “cinnamon.”

Documented in U.S. records from the late 20th century, Kesauna remains rare today and is associated with African-American naming innovation. Usage has been sporadic rather than sustained in national statistics. Variant spellings include Keshauna, Keshawna, KeSauna, Kesaunna, and Keshauna; related forms to consider are Shauna/Shawna and Keisha. Most bearers interpret the name as “God is gracious,” though some families prefer the “cassia” association.
