[Opinions] Re: Shawn and Shawna
I like Shawn Johnson and when I think of her the name is really cute. But when I don't think of her I think it's a really ugly very very masculine name. I agree with you about Shawna. Shawna is probably one of the names I dislike most in the world (no offense). I just hate the sound. Shawn is way better than Shawna.Hmmm yeah Shawn is better than Shawna and not a bad name but I think with all the pretty girls names out there you can find a better one than Shawn.I also think a girl named Shawn would have it really difficult in life because people would always assume she was a boy. I think Shawn Johnson's middle name is Machel. I wonder how they pronounce it. Does anyone happen to know ? I hope hope hope hope it's not a silly spelling of Michelle.

Hi Lily. Thanks for your comments. I didn't know about her middle name being Machel. That is an unusual one. I wonder how it is pronounced. I wonder if it is like Michelle too, but should it not have an -elle ending? As it is, it almost looks like Michael/Michal ? Shawn Michael would definitely suggest a boy combo of course. I don't know if Shawn Johnson has ever had people wonder about her being a boy. Maybe her manner and cuteness just make the name cute for her, but I like it on other girls too.

yeah at first I thought it was Michal but I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be Michelle or Mah-KELL ? must be really confusing. I actually prefer Shawn on a girl (really dislike it on a boy, just like Shawna on a girl) but I'd choose a really feminine middle name if I had to use it.
