Cherrie Origin and Meaning

The name Cherrie is a girl's name.

Cherrie is a feminine name that represents a variant spelling of Cherry, which began as a nickname derived from the French 'chérie,' meaning 'beloved' or 'darling.' As a given name, it gained modest popularity during the mid-20th century, often inspired by the sweet fruit name. This particular spelling with 'ie' instead of 'y' gives the name a slightly more elaborate, feminine appearance. Cherrie has a cheerful, vintage quality that evokes warmth and sweetness. While never among the most common names, it enjoyed brief periods of usage particularly in the 1950s and 1960s. The name carries associations with brightness, happiness, and the vibrant red color of cherries, giving it a playful, positive character.
