Carmen

Origen y significado de Carmen

Carmen has its roots in the Latin carmen, 'song, poem, verse,' while tradition also links it to the Hebrew karmel, 'garden of God,' through devotion to Our Lady of Mount Carmel. A quintessentially Spanish, Mediterranean name, it is hugely popular in Spain and Latin America. Immortalized by Bizet's opera, it evokes passion, music and temperament. Its warm, rhythmic sound makes it one of the most intense and recognizable girls' names.
