"Love Is the Name" is an interpolation of Austrian band Opus' 1984 single "Live Is Life", which was the main inspiration behind its production.

The song's accompanying music video, directed by Hannah Lux Davis, portrays Carson dancing in the sunset on a beach and in a luxurious mansion.

[1] The singer revealed that "it was a collective decision between the two labels, the [recording] team, and [herself]" to release it as her debut single:[2] "I think the fact that the original song was such a global hit already helped a lot, because that melody is very infectious and already in people's minds.

[3] According to Griselda Flores of Billboard, he adds "Latin flavor to the track with flirtatious Spanish lyrics" such as "No sigas buscando que tú eres para mí (Stop searching because you are meant for me)".

"[5] Official remixes by DJ Laszlo, Nando Pro, Mack & Jet Set Vega, MADIZIN and Moto Blanco were also commissioned.
