Shaun

Alternate spelling, Sean

Shaun is a variant spelling of Sean, itself an Irish form of John.

Like Sean, it gained popularity as a given name in English-speaking countries during the mid-20th century.

The spelling Shaun may be preferred to avoid pronunciation confusion, since Sean can be mistaken for "seen" by those unfamiliar with Irish names.
