I haven't seen or heard of it before. There are so many Tamil names with "Sh" sound. Shanmuganathan and Shanti are just couple of them.
Ya when we write it we write it as "sanmukanaathan" and "saanthi". There is no "sh" sounding letter. There was at one point in time, then they removed it, I don't know.
