Cherylene is of Greek origin and means "belonging to the Lord". It is a unique and elegant name that combines the elements of "cher" from the Greek word for lord, and "ylene", which may be inspired by the chemical element xenon, symbolizing rare beauty. This two-syllable name begins with a strong, hard consonant sound and ends with a soft, musical vowel sound, creating a harmonious balance throughout its pronunciation. Cherylene is not particularly common, making it an excellent choice for parents seeking a distinctive yet timeless name for their child.
The name Cherylene had a significant spike in popularity between 1946 and 1948, with 56 births recorded in 1946 alone. After that peak, the number of babies named Cherylene steadily declined until 1972, when only 5 births were recorded. Over the span of these years (1944-1972), a total of 330 babies were named Cherylene.
