The name Shanshan has been used to name three tropical cyclones in the northwestern Pacific Ocean. The name was submitted by Hong Kong and is a girls' given name (Chinese: 珊珊; pinyin: Shān-shān; Cantonese Yale: Sāan-sāan). It is part of a series of reduplicated typhoon names from Hong Kong, like Tingting, Yanyan and Lingling.

  • Typhoon Shanshan (2000) (T0018, 26W) – not a threat to land.
  • Typhoon Shanshan (2006) (T0613, 14W, Luis) – impacted Japan.
  • Tropical Storm Shanshan (2013) (T1302, 02W, Crising) – brought rains to the Philippines, Vietnam and Malaysia.
