      The name Charmene is a variation of the name Charmaine and is derived from English or French origins. It embodies the meanings associated with the roots char or charm, signifying notions of allure, grace, and beauty. Names like Charmene are often selected for their melodic qualities and the positive connotations they carry, making them desirable choices for parents seeking something unique yet meaningful.

      Historically, the name Charmene, as a derivative of Charmaine, has roots in 20th-century naming trends where French names gained popularity in English-speaking cultures. The name Charmaine itself gained prominence in the early to mid-20th century, often associated with characters in literature and film that embodied charm and sophistication.
