Cherelle is a feminine given name that appears to be a variant of Cherell or possibly derived from 'Cherie,' a French word meaning 'darling' or 'beloved.' The name has been in use since at least the mid-20th century but gained more visibility in the 1980s, partly due to American R&B singer Cherelle who had several hit songs during this period. Linguistically, the name follows French-influenced naming patterns with the '-elle' suffix, which typically creates a feminine form and has a softening effect on the name's sound. This suffix appears in many French-derived names and words, indicating 'little one' or serving as a feminine marker. Cherelle has a melodious quality with its two-syllable structure and soft consonants. While never extremely common, the name saw periods of increased usage in the United States during the 1970s through 1990s, and continues to be used today, though less frequently than during its peak periods.
