Very beautiful name. Uncommon, which is always a great thing to look for in a name.-- Heart 6/3/2006
The 'man' and 'car' ruins it.-- Anonymous User 6/6/2006
It is 'men' actually. It has class, it is uncommon and is pretty none the less.-- Heart 6/23/2006
It can also mean "charm, incantation."-- prisca 7/9/2006
It's an okay name, but where I live, in Romania, it's overly used. I know at least 10 Carmens!-- Anonymous User 7/10/2006
I've always loved Carmen, but why would someone name their son this?-- trayc53 7/23/2006
I think Carmen is a beautiful name. My elder sister is called Carmen and I'm a little jealous, being stuck with a common name like Lauren an' all. :P-- Surreal 9/14/2006
This name has really grown on me. It is very pretty and not heard of much. I know an 11 year old girl with this name and a 5 year old girl with this name. The 5 year old spells it Karmen though.-- Anonymous User 12/6/2006
I love this name! Partly because of the opera and how much I love her character. More recently I have found other reasons to like this name even more. To me, Carmen seems like a girl with a very daring and sprightly personality. I also like Carmen because of it being derived from the word for song. That is lovely.-- neverland4962 12/28/2006
My mum's name is Carmen and I thought it was quite unusual but I like it better then Carmel.-- Holzi194 2/14/2007
My name is Carmen. When I was little, I hated the name bcause it wasn't "pretty", and have always wanted to change it. But now, I love it. It's unique and not a lot of people have it. My English teacher said my name reminded her of some opera. XD-- Inu-chan 2/17/2007
Carmen is a Christian singer/songwriter that was popular in the 90's, though I'm not sure if he's still in the music business.-- Saru 2/22/2007
My name is Carmen, and in Spain it is very very common. I'm 38 but when I was a child I didn't like it, afterwards I liked it a lot but I don't like it much because here it is too common but when I am abroad it sounds very nice.-- Anonymous User 2/28/2007
The meaning and the sound is pretty.-- 7up 3/6/2007
To me, Carmen is a strong, dramatic name, almost flamenco dancer-esque.-- wordybookworm 3/16/2007
This name reminds me of someone who'd be sophisticated and snooty.-- Honeyrose 8/7/2007
Carmen's not actually a bad name for a guy. My mom knows a guy named Carmen, I don't know whether it's Carmen or Carmine though.-- Ranee 8/20/2007
In Spain Carmen is the commonest female name of all. Any Spaniard knows at least 10 Carmens, and more than one in their family. It is not that it is an ugly name but so overused that it sounds like an empty word.-- Anonymous User 9/21/2007
Slovene form is Karmen.-- Anonymous User 10/14/2007
A famous bearer is Carmen Morejón, singer of the band United Flavour.-- Karcoolka 2/1/2008
This is the name of the title character in the stage musical "Carmen Jones". It was an updating of the Bizet opera "Carmen", with an African-American theme. It was first produced on Broadway in 1943. In the 1954 film adaptation, the main character was portrayed by Dorothy Dandridge. Dandridge was the first African-American actress nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress, though she didn't win.-- AndrewJKD 4/6/2008
A famous bearer is actress Carmen Zapata (born July 15, 1927). She has appeared in a variety of films and television series, and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for live theater.-- AndrewJKD 4/11/2008
I can't quite get over the memory of a trashy Finnish beauty pageant contestant with this name who became famous for no particular reason. She was also quite a cold person, and later on she wound up working for a trashy magazine. That's why this name just still doesn't sound nice to me, but someone might change my views, who knows.-- slight night shiver 4/20/2008
Such a pretty sounding name, in my opinion.-- pennycarroll 7/30/2008

Carmen Lopez is a character in the show George Lopez, portrayed by Masiela Lusha.-- sddorme 7/1/2009
I love this name. It's very sexy. It makes me think of Carmen Electra, or Carmen Lopez (Masiela Lusha).-- sddorme 7/1/2009
I know it's a Spanish name, but I still don't like the word men in it.-- Anonymous User 7/13/2009
I've heard this on a guy too. Too bad always makes me think of Carmen Sandiego though.-- Rodiggidy 9/10/2009
A trendy name, but with actual history. Feminine but not frilly.-- lucyskydiamonds 1/17/2010
I remember finding this name masculine when I was younger and the movie 'Spy Kids' came out. I was confused because the daughter was named Carmen and the son was named Juni and I thought their names should have been switched. Now I find it feminine.-- Aureliano 6/5/2010
Also Italian. [noted -ed]-- LaCarmina 7/1/2010
I love this name, always have and when I found out it meant 'song' or 'a beautiful song' I loved it even more as I am a singer myself. :P
All my life I have been Carmensita, even though I'm not Spanish, I'm from Australia. I don't think my parents could have chosen a better name for me, suits me to a T hehe.-- Carmensita23 8/12/2010
I used to hate this name, but after learning of its meaning ('a songstress' is just gorgeous), I don't hate it so much anymore.-- Anonymous User 9/7/2010
