There is no equivalant name as it's a Gaelic-Irish name. Also, Be aware that Hebrew alphabet and fonts would be...ummm,...Greek to you. Seeing that Siobhan in English translation is Irish form of Jehanne, a Norman French variant of JEANNE (Siobhan is another Irish form of Joan meaning "God is gracious)." A popular name in Ireland where the anglicised versions are often used). With that being said, you're still no closer.

A baby's parents who are Jewish choose whatever Hebrew name they like and identify with the most.

... and furthermore, to translate the phrase 'God is gracious' into Hebrew would be 3 separate words and not a name. Jeanne or Joan has no Hebrew equivalent.

The following Hebrew phrase reads from right to left:
ΧΧœΧ•Χ”Χ™Χ הוא אדיב
Elohim Hoo Adev: English lettering pronunciation of Hebrew words, though not a name.

Hebrew Letters: Gimell Yod Yod Noon Sophis
Χ’ 'Χ™Χ™ΧŸ

Pronounced: Jain

That is incorrect regarding Hebrew that equivalnet name. Please read the previous posts. See my earlier post. There IS no Hebrew equiv. name for Sheevon. Siobhan is an Irish-Gealic name for the English version of Jeanne or Jane.

... however, if the person desiring a literal transliteration of the name for the purpose of making a tatoo, livi s is correct.
