      Meaning of the first name Charlese

      Origin

      French

      Meaning

      Feminine form of Charles

      Variations

      Charleen, Charlene, Charlee
      The name Charlese originates from French and is considered the feminine form of the popular name Charles. It derives from the Germanic name Karl, meaning man or warrior. Charles is a name with a rich history, most notably associated with the great Charlemagne, King of the Franks and Lombards, who united much of Europe during the early Middle Ages.

      In history, the male version of the name, Charles, has been prominent across various European royal families, including those of England, France, and Spain. However, the feminine form, Charlese, is less commonly found in historical records. This variation gained some traction in modern times and has been used as a first name for girls, particularly in English-speaking countries.

      In modern-day usage, Charlese is still relatively uncommon, but it does appear as a first name for girls in various regions around the world. While it may not carry the same historical weight as the male version of the name, Charlese is a unique and elegant choice for parents looking for a feminine spin on the classic name Charles.
