Carlous -
once in a blue moon

Do you know the feeling when you go to the zoo and the animal that is supposed to be in the enclosure is not there? You know it should to be there, but you've never seen it? It's the same with Carlous. Boys named Carlous have made themselves scarce. But some parents got a taste for it many years ago: Reaching pos. 1,847 Carlous ranked higher than ever in 1964. By comparison, there have been 84 years in which the first name Carlous has not been given at all (or less than 5 times, which is the minimum number required for a name to be included in the statistics), most recently in 2022. In general, parents name their sons Carlous only once in a blue moon, so boys and men with this name can consider themselves really special!

In years where the graph has no value, the name Carlous was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
