Why don't you just use the license of Shapely if your code is based on it? Personally, I try to avoid using any software components that uses the GPL, because it restricts me how I can use my software. That might be your goal: you may not want me to use your piece of software in a closed software project, like a project build for a customer. That's totally fine, but that also means that you won't get any patches or contributions from me, or from people that share my opinion. And that is especially true for libraries. Regardless whether you want to change the license or not, you need to add the proper copyright/license notice of the original code if you use substantial code from another project.
