History & Origin

Chardae is a modern coinage that writes out the 'shar-DAY' sound linked to the singer Sade, whose star rose in the mid-nineteen-eighties. Parents drawn to that elegant sound spelled it many ways — Chardae, Charday, Sharday — with Chardae taking a Char- opening and a French-looking -dae ending.

Chardae appears from the mid-nineteen-eighties, peaks around 1986 alongside Sade's fame, and fades within a couple of decades. A woman named Chardae at the peak is in her late thirties today. It reads as an eighties invention and has not been revived.
