About Karolis
Karolis, a Lithuanian name, originates from the Germanic noun *"karlaz", meaning "free man". This term survives in English as "churl", derived from Old English "ċeorl"**.
The name Karolis also has roots in the West Frankish name "Háriolus", a pet form of Germanic names starting with *"harjaz / charja-", meaning "army, army leader, commander, warrior". When this name entered Romanic spelling, the Germanic "H" transformed into "C" or "K", hence the variations with "C" and "K"**.
Karolis shares a Latin origin with "Carolus", the Latin form of "Charles". This name was particularly popularized by Charlemagne, also known as "Charles the Great", who reigned as King of the Franks and later became the first Holy Roman Emperor. The name "Karolus" was used in the Latinized form "in Vita Karoli Magni" and later also as "Carolus".
