Sherian is of American origin, derived from Scottish 'Sheridan'. It is a variant spelling of Sheridan, which means 'from the bright, clear stream'. The name gained popularity in the United States during the 19th century and has been used consistently since then, though not as commonly as its original form. Sherian typically has three syllables: 'Sher' + '-i-an', with the stress usually placed on the second syllable.
"Sherian saw its peak popularity during the mid-1940s with a high of 53 births in 1943. However, it gradually declined thereafter, falling to as low as 5 births in 1979 and 1985. Overall, there were 849 babies named Sherian between 1939 and 1985."
