All around the world, Shinaz (Shinaz 
, شيناز 
) is a rare largely female, but uncommonly masculine first name. The first name Shinaz is characteristic of United Arab Emirates, where it is a rare male name, Saudi Arabia, where it is a very rare female name, and South Africa. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is commonest in India, United Arab Emirates, and Pakistan. Very seldom, Shinaz is the last name as well as the forename.
