Karma is predominantly a female name in the United States, reaching peak popularity in the 2010s. There are approximately 7,000 people named Karma in the US today.
The name Karma's root letters are KM.
The letter M is the symbol for all things motherly and maternal. Its mellow and mellifluous tones create the feminine resonance of the words maiden, matron, merciful, mild, mama and mammary. When the M is teamed up with the forcefully masculine letter K, the resulting combination could be said to create an enigma of biblical proportions. This is why one can never be sure which facet of the KM is going to be the dominant theme on any given day: their protective and emotional aspects or their ambitious and goal-oriented sides.
If Karmas were automobiles, they’d be one of those little foreign jobs. Not because they’re overly flashy or powerful, but because they’re performance-oriented people who appreciate quality and style. And Karmas don’t seem to mind if some critics describe them as stuck-up; they’re the first to agree that their world-view is a little unusual and have long since come to terms with the consequences of being “different”. Even when young, Karmas learned to take care of themselves and are quite capable of living life without having someone make a fuss over them.
Karmas are driven and successful individuals with a lot to prove… both to the world and to themselves. When there’s nothing to temper their adventurous spirit, exploration and self-discovery will rule the KM’s life. That’s why there’s no point in trying to pigeonhole them into a particular career path; they are creatures of excitement who get antsy at the thought of being professionally tied down. But if and when Karmas do settle down into a job, they will avoid work that brings them directly into contact with the public. They’re more likely to tackle some kind of technical or artistic challenge even if it means biting off more than they can chew.
People are drawn to Karmas and envious of them without really knowing exactly why. Some believe this to be a symptom of the KM’s snobbishness (they often give the impression that they consider themselves to be a cut above the rest) but it usually has less to do with vanity than it does their complex emotional makeup.
Friendship with Karmas is an illusion of sorts and they can be tough nuts to crack when it comes to intimacy, for even in their most extroverted moments Karmas will hardly ever reveal their true intentions. It’s not that they don’t know what they are, but they’d rather let their achievements speak for them instead. In matters of the heart, a good sign that you’re winning a KM’s trust is when they lose some of their restlessness and become a little more reflective. If you’re lucky, you’ll uncover their clandestine sensitivities and even enjoy one of their patented “meaningful conversations”.
