Sharmion

Sharmion is an extremely rare feminine name with uncertain origins. It may be a modern invention or a variant of Charmian, which was the name of one of Cleopatra's attendants in ancient Egypt and means "joy" or "delight" in Greek. Shakespeare used the name Charmian for a character in his play "Antony and Cleopatra." Sharmion carries an exotic, melodious quality with its flowing sounds and uncommon nature. The name has never appeared in U.S. Social Security Administration naming data, indicating its exceptional rarity. Those named Sharmion likely enjoy having a distinctive name that stands out, while possibly connecting to the historical and literary resonance of its potential root name Charmian.

Pronounced SHAR-mee-un.
