Carmel is a masculine name with rich biblical and geographical origins. Derived from Hebrew 'Karmel' meaning 'garden' or 'vineyard of God,' it refers to Mount Carmel in Israel, a significant location in biblical history. While Carmel is used for both genders, it has traditionally been more common for boys in countries with strong Catholic traditions, particularly in Ireland and Italy. The name evokes natural beauty and spiritual significance, with connections to the Carmelite religious order as well. As a male name, Carmel has maintained steady but modest usage, appreciated for its soft sound combined with historic strength. Its biblical roots appeal to religious families, while its natural connotations attract those seeking a name with depth and meaningful associations.
