Deshaud is likely a modern elaboration related to Deshawn, built around Shawn, the Irish form of John. That gives it a link to a long biblical naming tradition even though the full form is modern. The name feels smooth and rhythmic, with a style that is very much its own. Deshaud sits in the broad family of modern invented names that borrow familiar pieces and reshape them into something original.
