how about the male version, a "Ken"?

but "Karens" has become common parlance, and it works for the joke.

btw I changed it from "Jewish mothers", the way the person I heard it from told it.

I remember on The View when the topic discussed was the use of ''Karen'. Whoopi noted that her birth name is Caryn. I don't remember her comment, but I remember she was not happy at the use of her birth name in that way.
