Name Meaning
feminine diminutive of Charles , used in England since the 17th century. It was particulary popular in the 18th and 19th centuries, in part due to the influence of firstly Queen Charlotte ( 1744–1818 ), wife of George III , and secondly the novelist Charlotte Brontë ( 1816–55 ); it has again come to prominence since the 1980s, especially in England and Australia.
