Carmel
I've been liking the name Carmel. I don't know whether I'd actually use it ... It reminds me so much of "caramel", which is annoying even though I like caramel ;-)
But anyway, WDYT? It would probably be for a middle name. I also quite like Carmella, but I think Carmel is girly enough on its own without being Latinised. For some reason I don't care for Carmen at all.

Carmel is weird to me. I like Carmella and Carmine (car-meen) though.

what about Caramella?
I'm not sure about in other places, but in the U.S. "carmel" is actually another word for "caramel." (Although "caramel" is often considered to be a bit fancier.) For this reason, I would not use it as a name. I like Carmen though.

I, too, am reminded of caramel, and when I was growing up, one of my elementary school teachers spelled caramel as carmel phonetically as she pronounced it (oh, the wonders of the school systems). I think it's too girly, along with Carmella, and I find Carmen not feminine enough. I know a woman named Carmelina, but she only goes by Carm.
