I know two little girls named Siobhan (both spell it this way). I think it's just gorgeous but the pronunciation can be a pain (one of the little girls is autistic and calls herself sih-bawn. If I remember correctly her parents also call her this).

I know a girl who is Megan Siobhan. I think it's lovely but the spelling & pronounciation is difficult for English speakers.

My niece is Clare Siobhan (sha-VAWN). It's the Irish form of Jane / Joan. Gorgeous.

It's an Irish name pronounced sha-vonn. I know a girl with this name, her parents are Irish.

I know a girl named Siobhan. She pronounces it just like BtN says, but she has it miss pronounced all the time.

I've never heard of anyone with Siobhan, but it's pronounced shi-vawn, I believe. You should've put this is the Name Facts message board.

A girl I went to school with was called Siobhan and there is a girl in the class I teach called Muirgen Siobhan. It's Irish and pronounced Shiv-on

I know one person with this name and she spells it Siobhan. It's prounounced she-VAWN.

I don't really like it. I find it boring and it's a bit dated where I live.

I've met a handful of Siobhan's in my time. They've all spelt it Siobhan, but I have also seen Shevaun in newspapers etc. I prefer the latter spelling if you live in the US, where Siobhan might be confusing. It's pronounced she-VAWN :-)

I do know a Siobhan. It's said shi-VAWN. I prefer this spelling only no creative one like Chevon. It is a gorgeous name

I don't know anyone with the name Siobhan per se. But my Social Studies teacher last year had a daughter called Shivaun, one of the many possible Anglicised spellings. In this case, though, I prefer just Siobhan itself, because any attempts at Anglicising the spelling just look kre8iv to me.

It is pronounced Sha-vorn. Don't really know much about it.
