Thinking about the name
Sharena
American origin
“Derived from Sharon with a -na suffix addition, Sharena extends the classic name into something more elaborate and contemporary. The -na ending creates a lyrical, slightly exotic quality found in names from Spanish and Italian traditions adapted to American contexts. Sharena feels elegant and deliberately feminine.”
