In the entire world, Шаман (Chaman , Shaman , Szaman ) is a widespread gender-neutral given name. The first name Шаман is characteristic of India, where it is quite a common unisex name, Pakistan, where it is quite a rare largely masculine, but infrequently feminine name, and Qatar, where it is quite a rare male name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in India, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia. Very seldom, Шаман is the last name as well as the forename.
Шаман is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: shaman , the unnamed but main character from Sintel (2010).
