Rashawn

US Popularity Rank: 7541

Origin: American

Meaning: Counsel, protection; Graced by God

Rashawn is a boy’s name of American origin. It combines the German name Ray (short for Raymond, meaning “counsel, protection”) with the name Shawn, an anglicized Irish translation of John. One of the largest name roots, John comes from the Hebrew name Yochanan, meaning “graced by God.” Its proper Irish form is Seán, though it’s often anglicized as Shawn, Shaun or Sean. Blending two classic names with appealing meanings, Rashawn offers the best of both worlds! Other variants of this name include Rashaun, Raeshawn, Rasean, and more.
