Charles is a masculine given name from the French form Charles of a Germanic name Karl.

The corresponding Old Norse form is Karl, and the German form is also Karl. The name was notably borne by Charlemagne (Charles the Great), and was at the time Latinized as Karolus (as in Vita Karoli Magni), later also as Carolus.
