Around the globe, 卡尔曼 (Kalman 
, Calman 
, 卡尔曼 
) is quite a common principally masculine, but very seldom female first name. The first name 卡尔曼 is characteristic of Israel, where it is quite a common masculine name, Hungary, where it is quite a rare boy's name, and Romania, where it is a rare male name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in Israel, India, and the United States. Also, 卡尔曼 is the last name as well as the forename.
