What is the meaning of the name Sharman ?

The baby name Sharman is a girl name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced SHAR-mən.

Sharman is English, Sanskrit in Origin.

Sharman can be read in two linguistic layers. As an Indic name it reflects Sanskrit śárman, an old neuter noun attested in Vedic Sanskrit, with the literal sense shelter, protection, comfort; the stem śarman- later appears in personal and family names, most famously Sharma. In English, Sharman is also a surname spelling related to Shearman, from Middle English shere, to shear, plus man, denoting a cloth-shearer.

The Sanskrit line belongs to Hindu naming, where -śarman served in Brahmanical male names and surnames; Sharman is a romanized form rather than the common modern Indian spelling. The English surname became an occasional given name in Britain and North America. U.S. birth data show mainly female use, concentrated in the mid twentieth century, with a peak in 1950 and little recent registration. Related forms include Sharma, Śarman, Sherman, and Shearman.
