Sean 
Irish, "Form of John (God is gracious)"
Sean is such an good-natured, enchanting name that celebrities running the gamut from John Lennon to Britney Spears have chosen it for their sons. And even though it is one of the most popular names in Ireland, here in the U.S. Sean has transcended cultural divides, working well with last names of any ethnicity.
