Sharise

This name has two possible etymological derivations. The theories includes: 1) From the Anglo-French “cherise”, from the Vulgar Latin “ceresia”, which in turn from the Greek “kerasian / kerasénios (κερασένιος)”, meaning “cherry, a deep, bright red color tinted with pink, Cherry-colored; a light bright red”. 2) From the Greek “Cháris (Χάρις)”, meaning “grace, kindness”. In Greek mythology, a Charis is one of the Charites (Greek: Χάριτες) or “Graces,” goddesses of charm, beauty, nature, human creativity, and fertility; and in Homer’s Iliad, Charis is the wife of Hephaestus. Charis is also the Spartan name of a Grace.
