Shionna is a modern feminine name, likely an elaboration of Scottish Gaelic Shiona/Shona/Sheona, themselves rooted in Sìne and Seonaid, Gaelic forms of Jane/Janet. These trace back to Hebrew Yochanan, meaning "Yahweh is gracious" or "God is gracious." The spelling with double n may also reflect influence from Irish-American Shauna/Shawna (from Seán, also from John), keeping the same underlying meaning.

Documented mainly from the late 20th century onward, Shionna remains uncommon and appears chiefly in English-speaking countries with Celtic heritage ties. It follows the creative-spelling trends that diversify Shona-family names. Related forms and variants include Shiona, Shona, Sheona, Seona, Seonaid, Sheena, Shauna, Shawna, and the Irish Siobhán; Shannon is a separate name with a different origin despite phonetic overlap. With its lilting rhythm and familiar roots, Shionna conveys the classic message of divine grace in a contemporary guise.
