Throughout the world, 沙得拉 (Shadrach
, 沙得拉
) is quite a common predominantly male, but very infrequently female forename. The first name 沙得拉 is habitual in Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Ghana, where it is quite a rare male name, Nigeria, where it is quite a rare principally masculine, but scarcely female name, and South Africa, where it is a rare male name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is commonest in Nigeria, Ghana, and the United States. Likewise, 沙得拉 is the last name as well as the forename.
沙得拉 is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Shadrach , the one of the three youths thrown into the fiery furnace in the Book of Daniel and Shadrach Dingle , the character in Emmerdale.
