Discovering many names thanks to this post!
My C stamps are in this post.
The names for types of fish in other languages are really interesting. My C stamp is here: https://envelope100.blogspot.com/2026/02/c-is-for-culidad-turistica.html
Carline is pretty enough to be used as a girls name. Its a beautiful illustration.
My C is here
Indeed, I know someone with that name - same spelling, too.
Hungary has some nice animal stamps. I thought Carline sounded like a name for a person too!

I love the carline stamp! But they are all attractive C stamps.
Interesting, the French influence I guess, for me a new one to add to flora female names.
