Cherrell is English in Origin.

Cherrell is a modern English feminine name, most often viewed as an elaboration of Cheryl/Sheryl. Cheryl itself arose in the early 20th century, likely blending the French term of endearment chérie (“dear, beloved”) with the then-fashionable -yl ending or with Beryl. Adding the -elle/-rell ending gives Cherrell a graceful cadence while preserving the core sense of “beloved” or “dear one.”

Usage clusters around the mid- to late-20th century in the UK and United States, riding the popularity wave of Cheryl and spawning creative spellings in African-American naming traditions and beyond. Cherrell remains uncommon today, offering a distinctive twist on a familiar base. Variants and near-forms include Cherelle, Cherrelle, Cherell, Charelle, Sherrell, and Sherrill; related names are Cheryl, Sheryl, and Chérie. Nicknames may be Cher, Che, Cherry, or Elle.
