Etymology: From Italian Carlo, from Latin Carolus, from Germanic. Doublet of Charles, Carl, and Carlos.

  1. A male given name from Italian, equivalent to English Charles.

    Charles, come here and be presented to your cousin, Mabel Earnshaw. His name is Carlo, but I couldn't possibly call him by it; it sounds so like a dog. At least, pronounced in my English fashion. And I can't roll my r's.
