| It's probably either way, like Sean and Shawn.

| I've seen it spelt something like SIOHBAN I don't think
that entirely correct, but it's real close. There's a note in
the file with that spelling also. I don't know the note #

| I've seen it spelled SIOBHAN. Years ago when I was competing
in Irish Step dancing all Siobhan's I knew spelled it this way.
Write them all out and see which one you like best !

| My friend has just had a little girl and called her
"SIOBHAIN" This is the proper Gaelic spelling, it
is the Irish for Julie or Julia
The choice is your to drop the "I"
Hope this helps

| My dictionary (Dunkling and Gosling) lists "Siobhan" as the
correct -- i.e., Gaelic -- spelling. It also, however,
lists some of the following variants:
Shavon
Shavone
Shavonne
Shevon
Shivohn
Shevonne
Chavon
Chavonne
Chevon
Chevonne
Chivone
Like all Irish names (Sean/Shawn was a good example), it's a
losing battle trying to keep the original spelling. When it
comes to names, spelling usually follows pronunciation. My
dictionary lists Shavon and Shavonne as the variants that
will most likely become standard.
BTW, it's Irish for Joan.

| My brother and his wife just named their little girl Devon Siobhan.
Very different! I liked their original choice Nicolette!
