Siobhan vs. Shivaughn vs. Shavonne

Hello. I am Alice and I am expecting my first baby. It is a girl and I would love to name her Siobhan, however; I live in America and am worried it will not be pronounce properly. These are the alternative spellings I have found so far. Which do you think is best? I am open to other suggestions of you know more alternative spellings for Siobhan. Thanks Alice Worander. P. S. It is pronounced Shi-vawn if anyone was confused.

Cute. I think Shavonne will get the pn you want. Shavon might work too.

I knew a girl who spelled it Shevon. She lives in the U.S. and it’s never mispronounced.

I would personally spell it the way it’s meant to be spelled and then tell people how to pronounce it when/if asked.

I’d spell it Siobhan, but I live in the UK and am quite used to seeing it.
I think most people will pick it up very quickly.
If you were going to spell it phonetically, I’d spell it Shivawn or Shavawn, because that’s the closest to the actual pronunciation.
However I think Siobhan is much prettier.
