Ke Shon is a new invention, an American English name with the prefix 'Ke' added to the name 'Sean'. The name 'Shon' itself is derived from 'John'. The name John is itself derived from the Hebrew name 'Yochannan', which is derived from the two words, 'Yahweh', which means 'God', and 'Channan', which means 'favored'.
