Spanish Names that Start with C

Here is a list of Spanish names that start with C. The page includes Spanish names for boys and girls from different eras, as well as last names.

The list is divided into several sections. The modern names are baby names and other names popular in the 2000s, while the traditional names are those common among people born during the Renaissance. Some names that have remained popular over the years appear on both lists.

The names in this randomizer come from several sources. Most modern and traditional names and surnames are drawn from the official statistics of Spain’s National Institute of Statistics. Modern names are those popular today, while traditional names were popular throughout the 1900s. Some names appear in both eras.

All of the names also appear in my Random Spanish Name Generator.

As the modern names come from official statistics, not all of them are “ethnically” Spanish. However, I decided to keep the statistics as they are instead of filtering out names with different backgrounds.

Spanish boy names beginning with C have become less common. Many traditional C-names are tied to older naming patterns that are no longer as fashionable. For example, many double names starting with Carlos have become less common. In recent decades, Spanish parents have shifted toward shorter, more modern, and internationally adaptable names, which spreads popularity across many different initials.
