In the world, कारण (Karena 
, Kerana 
, कारण) is quite a common principally feminine, but very seldom masculine forename. The given name कारण is characteristic of Macao, where it is quite a rare girly name, Hong Kong, and Australia. Measured by absolute frequency, this name is the most popular in the United States, India, and Hong Kong. Much less frequently, कारण is the last name as well as the forename.
