Sherylene as a Baby Name. Meaning and Origin of Sherylene

What is the meaning of the name Sherylene ?

The baby name Sherylene is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /ʃɛrɪˈliːn/ (sher-ih-LEEN).

Sherylene is English in Origin.

Sherylene is a modern English elaboration built on Sheryl/Cheryl with the feminine suffix -lene. Cheryl itself arose in the early 20th century, likely blending the French term chérie (“dear, beloved”) with names like Beryl; Sheryl is a respelling shaped by Sherry. By extension, Sherylene carries the affectionate meaning “beloved” or “dear,” while also reflecting mid-century American tastes for -lene forms.

The name saw sporadic use in North America from the 1950s onward, paralleling popularity spikes of Cheryl, Sheryl, Charlene, and Marlene, but it has remained uncommon and now reads as a distinctive, vintage-tinged choice. Variant spellings include Sherilene, Sherrilene, Sheralene, Sheryline, and Sheryleen; related forms are Sherilyn/Sherilynn and Sherylin. Common short forms are Sherry, Sheri, and Lene/Lena. Though without a single traditional root beyond Cheryl/Sheryl, Sherylene fits within a broader 20th‑century pattern of creative compounds that joined familiar stems with melodic suffixes to achieve a gently romantic tone.
