Sharna is a feminine name with multiple origins. In Hebrew, it derives from 'Sharon,' meaning 'a fertile plain.' It also has Sanskrit roots where it means 'protection' or 'shelter.' In Australian Aboriginal languages, Sharna can mean 'to shine' or 'to glow.' The name gained modest popularity in English-speaking countries during the 1970s and 1980s, particularly in Australia.
