Caroll -
swimming against the tide

If your name is Caroll your parents may be very proud to let their child swim against the tide: The name Caroll never ranked higher than position 1,545 in our statistics, and for many years not a single parent had the creative idea of naming their offspring Caroll. But something caused mothers and fathers in 1946 to choose the name more often than usual - only compared to the rest of the time, of course. You probably still won't find many children named Caroll because that was several decades ago - unless, of course, you have some very creative parents in the neighborhood.

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

2022 - looking for Caroll?

So if you know someone named Caroll who was born in 2022, please let us know - we would be very interested in hearing about it so that we can provide you with even more accurate statistics.
