I like it but do you think it sounds too 'grown up' for a baby and toddler?

Carmen was on my list when I was expecting my DD! Love it.

It's a beautiful name, and Cami is a lovely nick name, as suggested above.

Love it!

Love it! Could always use Cami as a nn as a baby if u think Carmen too grown up? I like Carmel too.

It’s a beautiful name and as an opera lover it conjures up all sorts of images and sounds.

Very nice and uncommon.

Lovely lovely name OP! Not too grown up for baby or toddler at all.

Not at all, gorgeous name. She won’t be a baby or toddler for long anyway, better to pick a name that will suit her all her life
