A modern blend of Sharon and Cheryl
Sharell is a modern American invention likely created by combining the names Sharon, meaning 'plain' or 'meadow', and Cheryl, meaning 'darling'. It emerged in the mid-20th century as part of a trend of creating rhythmic, feminine names using the 'sh' sound and 'elle' suffix. It carries the combined heritage of Hebrew and French roots through its parent names.
