Meaning & origin
Sharonna is a rare feminine name that first appeared on U.S. birth certificates in 1971, a time when creative name formations were becoming more common. It reached its peak popularity in 1988, though even then it remained outside the top 1000. Despite never charting, it continues to see occasional use, staying stable in recent years (latest recorded 2025). The name likely emerged as a blend of the familiar Sharon and the suffix -onna, echoing the sound of names like Donna. Its lack of a clear meaning or historical roots has kept it from widespread adoption, but for parents seeking a distinctive name with a soft, melodic quality, Sharonna offers a modern, feminine choice.
Sharonna is a modern coinage, likely combining the biblically derived name Sharon (from the Hebrew word for 'plain') with the popular feminine suffix -onna, perhaps influenced by names like Donna. It emerged in the United States in the late 20th century, first recorded in 1971. Its usage peaked in 1988 and has since remained rare.
