Carlowe Origin and Meaning

The name Carlowe is a boy's name.

Carlowe is a distinctive masculine name with English origins, likely a variant or elaboration of Carl or Charles, which derive from Germanic elements meaning 'man' or 'free man.' The suffix '-lowe' may connect to Old English elements meaning 'hill' or 'mound.' This creates a name with aristocratic overtones, evoking images of rolling English countryside. Carlowe maintains a classic sound while being uncommon enough to stand out. The name has never ranked in top popularity charts, making it appealing to parents seeking something traditional yet distinctive. Its soft ending balances the stronger initial sound, creating a name with both strength and refinement.
