William Shakespeare. The first part of the surname «shakes» is very similar to the Persian and Arabic wordشخصی (shahs) /man (face, individual), person/.
Bashkir «шəхес» (shəhes) - personality, subject, individual.
When I was a kid growing up in the upper Midwest of the United States in the early 1980s, "Face!" was also a slang term analogous to the more recent "Burn!". It was often accompanied by a gesture wherein one put a hand up with the palm facing their forehead and the fingers in a forehead-pointing claw position; the hand was then drawn straight down as the exclamation was made.
I hadn't heard this term in years until I saw it sometime back in a How I Met Your Mother episode, which has a strong 1980s-nostalgic vibe to it.

It's shake + speare. As in, to shake a spear, to brandish a spear, a spearman. This name has a transparent English etymology.
It is not shakes + peare .
Maybe. This is the known version.
