When I was young I found a name's book and it said Shannon meant "Small but wise' I remember this very vividly but have not come across this meaning since then. I'd say this is my favorite meaning for the name Shannon-which is also my name.

My name is Shannon and I love the name I know from reading baby books that the name means little wise one. I would have to say that I believe that it is true because I am wise way beyond my years. Is there a website just for people named Shannon? If not, there should be. Thank you
