Carolyon is an uncommon variant spelling of the name Carl, which is derived from the Germanic elements Karl and man, meaning 'freeholder' or 'strong'. This name was popularized during the Middle Ages by Charlemagne, also known as Charles the Great, who ruled over much of Western Europe in the 8th century. Today, Carolyon remains a unique choice for parents seeking an unusual yet historically significant name for their child.
