Carmen
François la Flamme 2002.10 Carmen was documented from De Felice Dizionario dei nomi Italiani (p. 100 s.n. Carméla). Carmen, like Mercedes, originated as a devotional name referring to the Virgin Mary. Mercedes was ruled unregisterable in the precedents:
  • The submitter documented the given name from De Felice, I Nomi Degli Italiani; however, De Felice notes that Mercedes entered Italy from Spain. Because Mercedes is not found in Spain until well after 1600, the name could not have been found in period Italy. [Mercedes Amici, 01/00, R-Æthelmearc] Unfortunately, no documentation has been presented, and none could be found to show Mercedes as a period given name. The best that was found was María de las Mercedes, from 1690. This is well past our grey area, and does not even document Mercedes as a stand alone name. Barring documentation that Mercedes was used as a given name in period, this must be returned. [Mercedes de Cerdaña, 09/98, R-Ansteorra]Lacking evidence that Carmen was used in period, this name is not registerable. [Carmen Salazar, 10/2002, R-Ansteorra]
