But Demeter is more generally re-

the verdant, the protectress Of green

the Greeks and St Paul mentions a
Corinthian woman by that name.
Thus Chloe came TO England on the

HARLOTTA has the distinction Of

and are not the product Of a lengthy
evolution This name is the feminine
Of Charles, one Of the most popular
masculine names known to history.
Carlotta signifies man" and though
it is essentially feminine in its ap-
peal and has named women noted
for great beauty and womanly char
acteristics, Il has nevertheless pre-

strength and power.
The first Carlotta was Cariotta Of
Savoy who married Louis N and
brought the name into the royal
house Of France. The wife of
Cesare Borgia was called Carlotta.
