Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew root word "כרם" (kerem), meaning "vineyard."

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the name "Karmi" in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as it is a proper Hebrew name. However, the concept of a vineyard is represented by the Greek word "ἀμπελών" (ampelōn, Strong's G290), which is used in the New Testament.

Usage: The name "Karmi" means "my vineyard" or "vinedresser." It is used as a proper name in the Hebrew Bible, specifically referring to a male individual.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, vineyards were significant both economically and symbolically. They were a source of sustenance and wealth, and they often symbolized prosperity and blessing. The name "Karmi" reflects this cultural importance, suggesting a connection to fertility and abundance. Names in the Hebrew Bible often carried deep meanings and were sometimes prophetic or indicative of a person's character or destiny.
