Charlot

Charlot is a French diminutive of Charles, which derives from the Germanic element karl, meaning man or free man. The name was used in medieval France as an affectionate short form and later became associated with the comic character popularized by Charlie Chaplin in French-speaking contexts, where his famous tramp persona was widely known by this name. It functions as both a masculine and feminine diminutive, sharing its root with Charlotte, Charline, and Carlo.
