Karisma

Karisma Origin and Meaning

The name Karisma is a girl's name.

Karisma is a feminine name with roots in the Greek word 'charisma,' meaning 'divine gift' or 'favor.' The alternative spelling with a 'K' emerged in the late 20th century, giving the name a more contemporary feel. Karisma gained recognition particularly in India and among English speakers seeking distinctive names with positive connotations. The name suggests qualities of magnetism, charm, and an appealing personality. Its popularity rose in the 1990s and early 2000s, partly influenced by Indian actress Karisma Kapoor. While not among the most common names, Karisma continues to appeal to parents looking for a name that conveys charismatic qualities and stands out with its distinctive spelling.
