History & Origin

Sharron is a variant of Sharon, a Hebrew place name for the fertile plain along Israel's coast, echoed in the phrase 'rose of Sharon.' Sharon became an American sensation mid-century; the Sharron spelling crested around 1943 and slipped away as the whole family cooled, leaving it a period marker of the war years.

Given to several hundred girls a year at its peak, Sharron is now vintage, a wartime-era twist on a biblical plain-name.

Did you know? Sharron peaked around 1943 and faded within a generation, a double-r variant that rose and fell with the hugely popular Sharon.
