The story behind the name

Carter is a gender-neutral name of English origins, meaning "transporter of goods by cart." The English occupational surname first rose to fame in the 1970s thanks to US President Jimmy Carter. Since then, Carter has been tied to celebs, including Lil Wayne—also known as Dwayne Michael Carter Jr.—and Jay-Z, who was given the name Shawn Corey Carter at birth. Carter also bears ties with glitz and glamor as it sits next to its French luxury sibling, Cartier. A cute name that carries historical and cultural importance, Carter won't let you down.
