It's okay. It was the name of Pat Boone's oldest daughter. Actually, it was a nickname, her full name being Cheryl. But I only just recently discovered that when some insults aimed at Boone and his daughter Debby (Deborah) caused me to look into his life and career more than I ever had before. (Meaning not at all.) Few people know her full name. so it may as well be Cherry. Anyway, the name always makes me think of Cherry Boone and her bulimia. LOL. Which might not sound like a great association. Actually, it's a neutral association, I have no feelings about her one way or the other. I mention her because the fact that it was the name of the daughter of a famous, white-bread, straight-arrow Christian pretty much negates all of the criticism I've seen in the previous responses, as far as being on a par with Apple, Orange, being a stripper name, or cheap. To me, of course.

I wouldn't use it or anything, but I prefer it to Sherry or Cherie.
