Cher

Cher means expensive in French. Chere with an accent over the last e is dear. Cherie is darling in Francois.

Means dear in French. I am a Cheryl but my sister called me Cher and my mother too. It is a short form for Cheryl or can be a French girl's name.

This name is also a nickname. My grandparents call me this all the time. They speak very fluent Cajun French and in it, 'Cher' (along in regular French)means 'love' or 'dear'. This name I've rarely seen given to girls though, and, like I said, the only time I've ever heard it was to me by my grandparents.
