Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025
Cherrelle: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 1988.
Cherrelle finds its roots in the French surname Charrière, itself derived from the Latin *carraria*, meaning a road or path for carts—a name that evokes imagery of travel and journey. It entered Scottish records as a modern, melodic first name, most famously embodied by the American R&B singer Cherrelle, known for her 1980s hits like "Saturday Love" alongside Alexander O'Neal. While not directly linked to a specific place, the etymological heart of this name connects it to the many "Cherry" streets or lanes found across Scotland and England, often named after transport routes rather than the fruit. A softer variant, Cherelle, shares the same French heritage.
