I've seen it used, more than once, as a nn for Cheryl. Like that, it works very well. Most kids in the UK who learn a foreign language, learn French, or they used to; this might or might not be a benefit to their pronunciation!

Hi !!!
Of course Chérie is usable imo.
There are so many names..
This one is short, sweet and soft with a positive meaning.
I would say the same for Darling.

It's my sister's name. I've known a few older Cherie's, and everyone I'm the UK is familiar with Cherie Blair, so yes it's useable.

Would you like to be named Darling?
No, it's not suitable as a name. Cherie is better, but way too sweet for my taste.

I don't think you quiet read my post right.
I'm not talking about giving a name of darling to a child, I was talking about giving the name of Cherie, which means darling.

Yeah, I think it's probably suitbale. It's been used in the US a fair amount, though it's pretty dated, and also there's different ways people pronounce it. Sha-REE, Sherry, Cherry, and that would put me off using it.

This always reminds of “Bus Stop” where the Marylin Monroe character calls herself Cherie but the guy insists on pronouncing it “Cherry “.
