Sharla Origin and Meaning

The name Sharla is a girl's name.

Sharla is a feminine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a feminine variant of Charles, ultimately derived from Germanic roots meaning 'free man,' or it could be an Americanized form of the Hebrew name Sarah, meaning 'princess.' The name gained modest popularity in the United States during the mid-20th century, particularly in the 1950s and 1960s, but has remained relatively uncommon. Sharla has a distinctive sound with its 'sh' beginning and flowing 'la' ending, giving it a soft yet modern feel. The name carries connotations of strength and individuality, perhaps reflecting its connection to either Charles (strength) or Sarah (nobility). Its relative rarity makes it stand out while still being recognizable and easy to pronounce.
