Sheary Origin and Meaning

The name Sheary is a boy's name of Irish origin.

Sheary is an uncommon masculine name with uncertain etymology, possibly deriving from the Irish surname Sheary or O'Sheary, which originated from the Gaelic 'Ó Séaghdha' meaning 'hawk-like' or 'descendant of Séaghdha.' It may also be related to the English word 'shear,' suggesting someone who cuts or trims. As a given name, Sheary remains extremely rare, making it an unusual choice for parents seeking distinctiveness. The name has a gentle yet masculine quality with its soft beginning and 'ee' ending sound. Its rarity means there are few cultural associations or famous bearers, allowing a child to define the name's character rather than the reverse.
