[Opinions] Re: Shane or Sean?
They aren't the same name. I like Shane a lot better. I mean I like Sean but I wouldn't use it. I would definately use Shane though. Every since I've listened to the singers Shane Bernard and Shane Everett, I've loved the name.

What she means is . . .That they are the same name etymologically - they're both Irish versions of John. They're just pronounced differently, probably because Shane is Anglicised and Sean isn't.
