What is the meaning of the name Karizma ?

The baby name Karizma is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /kəˈrɪzmə/ (kuh-RIZ-muh).

Karizma is Greek in Origin.

Karizma is a modern given name shaped as a creative respelling at the crossroads of Charisma (from Greek kharisma, “divine favor, gift of grace”) and South Asian Karishma/Karisma (from Persian/Urdu karishma, “miracle, marvel”). The substitution of K and Z reflects late-20th-century naming fashions favoring sharper letters and distinctive spellings.

In use primarily since the 1990s, Karizma remains rare but recognizable in the United States and other English-speaking countries, with occasional South Asian influence. It is typically given to girls, though use is not strictly gendered. Common variants include Charisma, Karisma, Karishma, and less often Carisma. Depending on the etymology you prefer, the name conveys divine gift or grace, or the idea of a miracle, both suggesting an extraordinary, favor-bestowed presence. Related forms include Charis and Karis, and nicknames like Kari are common.
