A female given name, often associated with the character from the TV series 'The Sopranos,' or derived from the religious term for a Carmelite nun.
From Hebrew 'Carmel,' meaning 'garden' or 'vineyard,' referring to Mount Carmel in the Middle East. The name became popular in Italian culture and among Catholic families.
Mount Carmel in Israel is one of the oldest inhabited mountain ranges, and Carmelite nuns were named after this holy place—so naming someone Carmela connects them to thousands of years of spiritual history!
