This name derives from the Greek “khárisma (χάρισμα)”, meaning “favor freely given, gift of grace”, which in turn derives from the Greek “cháris (χάρισ)”, meaning “grace, kindness”. In Greek mythology, a Charis is one of the Charites (Greek: χάριτεσ) or "graces", goddesses of charm, beauty, nature, human creativity and fertility; and in Homer's Iliad, Charis is the wife of Hephaestus. Charis is also the Spartan name of a Grace.
