Jeryl-Ann is English in Origin.

Jeryl-Ann is a hyphenated modern English given name formed from Jeryl and Ann. Jeryl is widely viewed as a mid‑20th‑century respelling of Jerald/Gerald, from the Germanic elements ger “spear” and wald “rule”; it is also influenced by the popularity of Jerry and Cheryl. Ann, from Hebrew Hannah, means “grace” or “favor.” Taken together, the compound suggests “grace joined to spear‑rule” - a blend of strength and grace.

Use of Jeryl-Ann appears in North America from the 1950s onward, fitting the era’s fondness for double‑barrelled girls’ names that pair a tailored first element with the classic Ann/Anne. It remains rare and distinctive, with occasional records in the United States and Canada. Variants include Jeryl Ann (unhyphenated), Jeri‑Ann, Geri‑Ann, Jerrie‑Ann, and spellings with Anne (Jeryl‑Anne, Jeri‑Anne). Related forms include Cheryl‑Ann and Geraldine Ann; nicknames may be Jeri, Geri, or Annie.
