What is the meaning of the name Sheriece ?

The baby name Sheriece is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ʃəˈriːs/ (shuh-REES or sheh-REECE).

Sheriece is English in Origin.

Sheriece is a modern English given name derived from French Chérie/Chérise, ultimately tracing to Latin carus “dear, beloved.” The spelling with Sh- reflects a common anglophone adaptation that preserves the “shuh-REESE” sound while distinguishing it from French forms. Though sometimes confused with Cerise (“cherry” in French), Sheriece aligns etymologically with “cherished, dear” rather than the fruit, making “beloved” its most accurate meaning.

Usage grew in English-speaking countries in the late 20th century alongside related names such as Cherise, Charisse, Sheree, and Sharice, with particular visibility in African-American communities that favored creative respellings and melodic -iece/-ise endings. Sheriece remains uncommon but recognizable, supported by parallel variants including Sherice, Shereese, Shereece, Sherese, and Sheriece’s close cousins Cherise and Sharice. Diminutives like Sheree or Reese occasionally occur. Overall, Sheriece offers a contemporary, gently French-accented choice carrying the affectionate sense of “dear one.”
