Corben is English in Origin.
Corben is an English given name and surname variant of Corbin/Corbyn, introduced to Britain by the Normans. It comes from Old French corbin, “raven,” which traces to Latin corvus. In medieval England it appeared chiefly as a nickname that became a hereditary surname; as a first name it saw modern revival in the late 20th century. The sense “raven” evokes intelligence, watchfulness, and dark, sleek imagery.
Close forms include Corbin and Corbyn; modern respellings are Korbin and Korben. Cognate Corbett (from Old French corbet, “little raven”) shares the same root. Corben remains uncommon compared with Corbin but is used across the English-speaking world. Note that similar-sounding Corban is a separate Hebrew name meaning “offering,” unrelated in origin.
