Meanings

Carol is a feminine given name in English. It is also a European continental spelling of the English Charles, the Germanic Carl, and ultimately the Latin Carolus.

C. 1300, "joyful song," also "dance in a ring," from Old French carole "kind of dance in a ring, round dance accompanied by singers," perhaps from Medieval Latin choraula "a dance to the flute," from Latin choraules "flute-player," from Greek khoraules "flute player who accompanies the choral dance," from khoros "chorus" (see chorus) + aulein "to play the flute," from aulos "reed instrument" (see alveolus). The meaning "Christmas hymn of joy" is attested from c. 1500.

Feminine form of the Latin Carolus, cognate of Charles, means: full-grown, a man, freeman, manly; short form of Caroline. Short form of Caroline, derived from Carolus, also refer to English vocabulary word, means: song, hymn.
