History & Origin

Shareena is an ornate spelling of Shareen or Sharina, a name generally connected to Persian Shirin, 'sweet', and sometimes to the Hebrew place name Sharon. The extended spelling reflects the era's love of soft, decorated girls' names.

It appeared only in small numbers, no more than a few dozen girls a year around 1985, and stayed a minor variant. It belongs beside other flowing -eena names of its moment.

Did you know? Behind Shareena stands Shirin, the Persian word for 'sweet' and the name of a legendary queen in Persian romance - a graceful thread inside a modern-looking spelling.
