Carlene

I remember using Carlene for a main character's name when I was younger. I liked how it was pronounced and the meaning. Now it kind of reminds me of cars, but I still like the name. It's interesting :]

My sister’s name is Carleen, not spelled like the original. Maybe I am biased, but it’s a very feminine sounding name. It’s rare. It isn’t a run of the mill name, like Britney (including all the different ways to spell it) or Ashley, or Jennifer.

Sounds like a redneck version of Carly. It's rather unattractive.

Yuck! I prefer Marlene or Darlene.

Carlene is pretty and very stylish. I also love the spelling Karlene.

Carlene is a lovable, mature and gorgeous name for a girl. It makes a GREAT middle name! (:

Not the prettiest name ever, but it's a heck of a lot better than the overused, childish, immature "Carly" and all its trashy variants.

Sorry, but this is one of those old-fashioned country girl names that make me picture a middle-aged housewife with a thick Southern drawl who isn't very bright.

I have a really good friend named Carleena (a variant of the name) and I absolutely love it!

I have only met one Carlene and she was about 67 years old. It's not a bad name, I kind of like it.
