History & Origin

Sarahjane reflects the long habit of pairing Sarah with a short second name. Written as one word it appears sporadically in United States records from the late nineteen-thirties, then rises with the Sarah revival of the nineteen-nineties to a small high in 1997.

It was never common, given to only a couple dozen girls a year at most, though it has lingered in the records as recently as the twenty-twenties. A girl named Sarahjane at the peak would be around thirty today, and she may well go by simply Sarah or the full Sarah Jane.

Did you know? Double first names like Sarah Jane are a Southern and British tradition, and Sarahjane simply closes the gap between the two, turning a two-word pairing into a single given name.
