Yes, Shayna means pretty in Yiddush...it also means sleep in Hebrew! LOL I was given Shayna as a Yiddush name...but my fam says it's my Hebrwe name too...
I majored in writing and literature in college and I am now an Orthodox Jew (didn't even grow up in a Kosher home!) I'm so sorry your fam. was lost in the Chorbon...the Holocaust! My fam came over from Russia and Poland just in time!
I LOVE your name! Shanna is beautiful...and it is either a derrivative or Shayna (beautiful) or Shoshana (rose)! Either way...those names suit you as well!!!!!!!!
How did you get into history? Was it b/c of your fam and WWII? Do you know any of your granparents at all....or other ancestors?
It's great to have you on the board...I'm quite impressed with all the great info. you have to share!
