It sounds too surname-y to me, but I’m sure someone has used it somewhere.

oops, meant to reply to OP
I'm pretty sure I have a 3rd cousin named it, born in the 80s. Family surname.
I think it's nice, more spritely than Michael and reminds me of Carmine.
It does sound a bit retro for some reason, like, now I'm thinking of brown and orange floral patterns.

I've never heard or seen it used as a first name, though of course that doesn't mean that somebody someplace at some time hasn't used it like that.
It sounds silly for a first name. Like a character in a PG Wodehouse story. Carmichael Hoopley-Puffington.

I bumped into a young one not long ago. I think his sister was named Havana?
Carmichael is the equivalent of Roscoe to me. It's an old man named, just used mostly on black men.

"We liked Michael but that's just too common."
Unless it's a family surname it's just silly and pretentious.

Sounds like the parents wanted to sound posh. I'd rather leave the "car" in the garage and just go with Michael.
