Meaning & Origins
From the vocabulary word, denoting originally the Christian's love for his fellow man (Latin caritas, from carus ‘dear’). This was taken up as a girl's name in the 16th century, but in spite of St Paul's words ‘and now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity’ (1 Corinthians 13:13), Charity is less commonly used as a given name than the shorter Faith and Hope.
