It's very dated to the sixties or seventies, and it kinda sounds like chow mein. Like, if I was a Muppet creator and wanted a chicken with a punny sort of name, Chicken Charmaine would be a good choice.
As for Charmin/Sharmin, once I was reading a mystery novel by John Sandford, and the cop was interviewing a pimp and a couple of his girls, who were all hanging out in a hot tub. One girl's name is Charmin, and the cop asks her "As in please don't squeeze the?" The girl and the pimp cut their eyes at each other like "Can you believe this guy?" and the girl says, very annoyed "Jesus, it's CHARMIN, like Prince Charmin!"
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
