History & Origin

Carmino is an Italian masculine name akin to Carmine and Carmela, from the Latin carmen, a song, and associated with the veneration of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. It reached American records chiefly through Italian immigrant families in the early twentieth century.

Carmino was always rare, given to only about twenty boys a year at its faint peak in the late nineteen-tens across a long, thin run. A boy named Carmino then would be very elderly or gone today.
