Cherie is an English female given name.[1] It comes from the French chérie, meaning darling (from the past participle of the verb chérir, to cherish).[2] [3] It has also been used as a diminutive of names starting with or containing the sound Cher- or Sher- such as Cherilyn, Cheryl, Sharon, or Sherilyn for females. The name was well-used for girls in North America from the mid-1920s through the early 1990s and was at the height of popularity between the mid-1940s and mid-1970s.[4] Spelling variants of the name such as Cherry, Sharee, Shari, Sheree, Sherie, Sherrey, Sherri, Sherrie, and Sherry were in vogue during the same time period.
