Sheril Origin and Meaning

The name Sheril is a girl's name.

Sheril is a feminine name that originated as a variant spelling of Cheryl, which itself derived from the French name Cherie, meaning 'dear one' or 'beloved.' This alternate spelling became more common in the mid-20th century when variations of popular names gained traction. Sheril offers a slightly different visual appearance while maintaining the same pronunciation as Cheryl. The name experienced modest popularity during the 1950s and 1960s but has since become less common. Sheril has a soft, feminine quality with its 'sh' beginning and gentle ending, making it both distinctive and approachable. While not among the most popular names today, it retains an appealing vintage charm that some parents appreciate.
