Sherrick is an uncommon given name of English origin, derived from the Old Norse words 'scir' meaning 'bright' and 'ric' meaning 'power'. This name has a strong historical significance as it was borne by Sherrick II, Earl of Northumbria in the 11th century. Today, Sherrick is rarely used, contributing to its unique and distinctive character.
The name Sherrick experienced significant fluctuations in popularity over these years, with a notable spike from 5 births in 1976 to 29 births in 1987, and again from 22 births in 1989 to a peak of 60 births in 1988. However, it seems the name's popularity waned thereafter, with fewer than 20 births per year from 1990 onwards.
