History & Origin

Sharol looks like a blend of the two hugely popular mid-century names Sharon and Carol. Sharon is the Hebrew 'Plain of Sharon', the fertile coastal lowland of the Bible; Carol traces to Charles, 'free man', and to the joyful song.

The blend stayed rare, cresting around 1949 when both parent names were near their height, then fading. It is a grandmother-era coinage that has not been revived.

Did you know? Sharol sits right where Sharon and Carol overlapped in popularity in the late nineteen-forties, which is why it reads as a natural blend of the two rather than a name in its own right.
