Share Your Thoughts 7 Comments Sharlene Mar 29 at 5:30 am I was named after a man named Charles he looked like a movie star, he could do all jobs and he did very smart, retired at 50, and he truly married for love a real love. He was private man. Good enough for me. I also named my daughter after a very strong man and it’s my wish she have that in her life. Reply Charlene Jun 19 at 7:48 am My parents wanted a Charlton and got a Charlene in stead on the baby scanner showed that I was a boy so they named me Charlton when I was born they saw it was a girl and my father was dissepointed so he named me Charlene after him Charles is his name Reply Jessica Apr 27 at 5:43 am Charlene Michelle got both her names from her parents middle names. Charlene is my middle name, after my father and grandfather (Charles). Michelle is the feminine form of her father’s middle name (Michael), after his own father. I had picked out these names years before I ever met my husband. Reply Charlene Webb Aug 12 at 5:26 am My Parents wanted a Charles so they got Charlene instead . I Love my name not a common name. I like that Reply Charlene Dec 6 at 10:58 am Same here!! Reply Charlene Hill Aug 8 at 9:31 am Charlene don’t like it! Rock the casbah. I love my name it was given to me by my mama(it was hers too) after my Grandpa who was a wonderful human being! IAM proud to carry on their names. And too be perfectly honest it suits me if the definition is womanly,or free woman that is exactly who IAM! Reply Heather Alvis Sep 21 at 11:41 am One reason we like Charlene is because her daddy,grandpa,and great grandpa are Charlie so we liked her to have a girl version, 2nd she had a great grandma Shirlene and it sounds similar, and 3rd we like the country song “John Deer Green” which sings about Charlene.
