Tashawna
Meaning of Tashawna
Tashawna unfurls like an Andalusian dawn—its three-syllable melody a warm caress on the tongue, drawing on the modern American practice of weaving Tasha (a gentle echo of “born on Christmas Day”) and Shawna (“God is gracious”) into a single, sunlit tapestry. Though born in the late twentieth century, it carries the lustrous glow of Latin sunsets, each “sha” and “wna” rolling together like the soft patter of fiesta drums beneath palm fronds. In the mosaic of New York’s boroughs, from 1987 through 1996, half a dozen to nearly ten newborn girls each year were named Tashawna—quietly numbering in the mid-200s and threading their voices through subway tunnels, neighborhood plazas, and classrooms. With every utterance of “tuh-SHAWN-uh,” one senses not only a celebration of grace and new beginnings, but also a whispered promise of warmth, resilience and poetic promise carried on the city’s warm spring breezes.
