History & Origin
Tashauna is an original coinage rather than an inherited name, formed from the popular Ta- prefix and Shauna, the feminine of Sean. Shauna gives it a familiar close with a real meaning, while the Ta- opening ties it firmly to the girl-naming of its era.
It stayed at the edge of the record, a couple dozen girls a year around 1982, and faded by the two-thousands. A Tashauna from then is in her forties now, the name a smooth token of early-eighties invention.
