The Top 10 Most Famous Women with the First Name of Carol, Carole, Caroline, or Carolyn

For the past year I’ve been compiling famous names to list on my name numerology website.  These are all noted individuals, but who are the most famous?  Today let’s count down the most famous women named Carol, Carole, Caroline, and Carolyn.

The most famous people (based on online chatter) with the first name Carol, Carole, Caroline, or Carolyn are:

10. Carolyn Warmus – Convicted for the murder of her lover’s wife

9. Carol Channing – Stage and Screen Actress (Hello, Dolly!, Lorelei, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes)

8. Carol Kane – Actress (Taxi, Hester Street, The Princess Bride)

7. Carol Castro – Brazilian Actress (Mulheres Apaixonadas, Beleza Pura, Dona Flor e Seus Dois Maridos)

6. Carol Alt – Supermodel and Actress (Harper’s Bazaar, Sports Illustrated, Cover Girl Cosmetics)

5. Carol Shields – Author (The Stone Diaries, Larry’s Party, Unless)

4. Carolyn Murphy – Supermodel (Vogue, Sports Illustrated, Calvin Klein)

3. Carole King – Musician, Singer and Songwriter (Will You Love Me Tomorrow, You Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman, Hey Girl)

2. Carolyn Keene – Pseudonym of the Author of the Nancy Drew and Dana Girls mystery series

…and the most famous woman named Carol, Carole, Caroline, or Carolyn is…

1. Carol Bartz – Current CEO of Yahoo and Former CEO of Autodesk

Not making the top 10 list were Carol Barton – Pop-up Book Author (The Pocket Paper Engineer Series), Carol Brady – Character on classic TV series The Brady Bunch, Carol Burnett – Actress and Comedienne (The Carol Burnett Show), Carol Cleveland – Actress (Monty Python’s Flying Circus), Carol Leifer – Comedienne and Writer (Seinfeld, The Larry Sanders Show, Late Night With David Letterman), Carol McCain – First wife of US Senator and Presidential Candidate John McCain, Carol McCormick – Character on the TV series South Park, Carol Merrill – TV game show Model (Let’s Make a Deal), Carol O’Connell – Author (Kathy Mallory mystery novel series), Carole Landis – Actress (Moon Over Miami, I Wake Up Screaming), Carole Samaha – Lebanese Musician (Helm, Ana Hurra, Hododi El Sama), Caroline Bingley – Character in Jane Austen’s novel Pride and Prejudice, Caroline Corr – Musician, most notably with The Corrs (Forgiven Not Forgotten, In Blue, Borrowed Heaven), Caroline Kennedy – Daughter of US President John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Caroline Rhea – Actress and TV host (Sabrina the Teenage Witch, The Caroline Rhea Show, The Biggest Loser), Carolyn Jones – Actress (The Bachelor Party, The Addams Family, King Creole), Carolyn McCarthy – Six term US Congresswoman from New York, and Carolyn Myss – Author (Anatomy of the Spirit, Sacred Contracts, Entering The Castle).

An excellent mix of occupations for the Carol, Carole, Caroline, and Carolyns with one CEO (Bartz), one musician (King), one murderer (Warmus), two models (Alt and Murphy), two authors (Shields and Keene), and three actresses (Castro, Kane, and Channing).

I compiled this list by searching for each of the Carols, Caroles, Carolines, and Carolyns on a number of search engines and ranking them by the number of web pages, discussion forums, photos, videos, etc that are available online.

Selling Out: If Famous Authors Wrote Advertising


Selling Out: If Famous Authors Wrote Advertising


$25.94


In Selling Out, author Joey Green has taken the voices of famous writers past and present from Nathaniel Hawthorne to e. e. cummings, Jane Austen to Erica Jong and fashioned their words into the ad campaigns they might have written if their prose pushed brandname products. Sure to raise a chuckle from anyone who ever watched television commercials, as well as from those slightly familiar with classic literature, Selling Out is a hysterical look at what our most famous authors might have written if theyd sold their souls to advertising. For this revised and expanded second edition, Green added another fifteen parodies, bringing the total to fifty unforgettable ad campaigns, including William Blakes Tony Tiger, Franz Kafkas Raid Kills Bugs Dead, John Updikes Rabbit Keeps Going and Going, and George Orwells The UnCola.
