"Form of Cheyenne"
The name Cheyann is commonly a female name from the "Native American" origin.
Cheyann is a respelled form of Cheyenne, the English name for the Cheyenne people of the North American Great Plains, which came into use as a girls' name in the United States in the 20th century. The spelling keeps the sound of Cheyenne but ends in -ann rather than -enne, an ending shared with many American girls' names such as Leeann and Joann. It first appears in US birth records in 1980.
Cheyenne means "An Algonquian tribe of the Great Plains. Capital city of Wyoming.".
The pronunciation of Cheyann is shay-ANN.
