Shanna is a cool name.
- Personal experiences with the name Shanna
My girlfriend's give name is Shanna, but she goes by Shay. She hates how people mispronounce and misspell it. She pronounces it Shay-na (long a), but some people see it spelled and think it is Shah-na or with a short a to rhyme with banana.
My name is "SHANNA" (pronounced like Hannah with an S). I love how unique my name is (I never knew another SHANNA), and people frequently tell me that my name is pretty.
