History & Origin

Shaaron is a variant of Sharon, itself a Hebrew place name — the coastal Plain of Sharon, 'a fertile plain', celebrated in the Song of Songs as the home of the 'rose of Sharon'. The doubled a is a decorative twentieth-century spelling.

It appeared as a minor offshoot during Sharon's mid-century boom, chiefly in the nineteen-forties, and never became common in its own right. It reads today as a period spelling variant of a classic biblical name.

Did you know? Shaaron is one of several personal respellings that shadowed the hugely popular Sharon at mid-century, families adding an extra a to make the familiar name look distinctive on the birth certificate.
