This is my best friend's middle name! (Evangeline Shiri). But she said it was French? Anyway I think it’s lovely and makes a great alternative to the middle name Marie.
I love this name. My friend/a girl I babysit is named Shiri, and I have to say I am jealous. A bunch of my friends have Hebrew names, like Ziva (me), Anna, Shoshana, Eve, Kaiya, etc, and Shiri is definitely my favourite.
Shiri Maimon/Maymon is an Israeli singer who represented her country in the 2005 Eurovision with the song "Hasheket Shenish'ar". She qualified from the finals and made it into the Top 10.

Her film credits include A Time for Dancing (2002), where she played a main role as Sam Russel; Swimfan (2002); Havoc (2005) with Anne Hathaway; and Charlie Wilson's War (2007) with Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts.
Another (anonymous) user posted this in Roni's comments, and I agreed, so I'll post here, too:"Roni and Shiri would make great names for twins. Both mean my song."
