Modern American creation, likely a blend of prefixes and Octavia.
Shatavia is a contemporary American name that emerged in the late 20th century. It is likely a combination of the popular 'Sha-' prefix with the Latin name Octavia, which means 'eighth'. Like many names in this category, it was created for its rhythmic and melodic sound rather than a traditional etymological root.
