It’s more like “one who climbs into the prison of his wife”. Before anyone accuses the author of misogyny, like someone else on here did when they learned the meaning, the ML willingly imprisons himself over the timelines. If it isn’t her, he doesn’t choose anyone else. There’s also a reason why “wife” is used. That will be revealed in season 3.
The ML Spanish name definitions:
Cárcel = Jail
Escalante = scary/spooky
De Esposa = of Wife
So he is His wife’s scary jail LOL His behavior matches the name
