What is the meaning of the name Searlait ?

The baby name Searlait is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced SHAIR-lət (approx.).

Searlait is Irish in Origin.

Searlait is the Irish Gaelic adaptation of Charlotte, the French feminine of Charles, from Latin Carolus and ultimately the Proto-Germanic Karl, “man; free person.” In modern interpretation, Searlait is often taken to convey “free woman.” The name entered Irish onomastics through literary and ecclesiastical contact with French and English forms, with spelling conforming to Irish phonology.

Usage in Ireland is relatively modern compared to the long European history of Charlotte borne by queens and writers (notably Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg‑Strelitz and author Charlotte Brontë); Searlait has risen with the late‑20th‑century revival of Irish-language names and appears in Gaeltacht and bilingual registers. International variants and cognates include Charlotte (English/French), Carlota (Spanish/Portuguese), Carlotta (Italian), Charlotta (Scandinavian), and Lotte/Lottie, Charlie as diminutives; the Irish masculine counterpart is Séarlas (Charles).
