History & Origin

Shareese spells out by ear the softer Charisse or Cherise, names that rose in the United States in the nineteen-seventies and eighties. The favored root is the Greek charis, 'grace', crossed with the French cherie, 'darling'. Writing it with sh makes sure the name is read the way it sounds.

It stayed a small favorite, reaching only a couple dozen girls a year near its peak around 1985 and thinning through the two-thousands. A girl named Shareese then is in her late thirties now.

Did you know? The charis root behind Shareese also gives us Charity and the three Graces of Greek myth, all carrying the idea of grace and favor.
