What is the meaning of the name Sharleen ?

The baby name Sharleen is a girl name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced shar-LEEN.

Sharleen is English, French, Germanic in Origin.

Sharleen is an English respelling of Charlene or Charleen, modern feminine forms built on Charles. The root is Germanic, with the earliest relevant form usually reconstructed as Proto-Germanic *karlaz, later Old High German Karl, a common noun for a man, especially a free man rather than an enslaved person. The spelling Sh- substitutes for French-derived Ch-, while -leen reflects the English -lene/-line feminine ending.

Charlene developed in English use after older French Charlotte and Caroline had carried the Charles family across Europe. Sharleen belongs chiefly to 20th-century Anglophone naming, appearing in U.S. records from the early 1900s and peaking around mid-century; it later receded as Charlotte revived. Related forms include Sharlene, Charleen, Carlene, Carla, Karla, and Italian Carlotta. The name has no central religious tradition, though Charles has several Christian saints.
