Correen is Greek in Origin.

Correen is an English given name, a rare variant of Corinne/Corrine, ultimately tracing to the Greek Korinna, a diminutive of korē “maiden.” The name reached English through French Corinne, widely noticed after Madame de Staël’s 1807 novel Corinne, ou l’Italie, which spurred 19th‑century use in Britain and North America. The Correen spelling appeared later in English‑speaking countries as a phonetic re‑spelling and through analogy with Irish‑influenced -een endings common in names like Maureen and Eileen.

Its core meaning is “maiden” or “young woman,” placing it alongside Cora and the mythic Kore (Persephone). Documented variants include Corinne, Corrine, Corrinne, Coreen, Corene, Koreen, and Korinne; related forms include Corina/Corinna and Cora. Usage of Correen itself has been modest, with sporadic mid‑20th‑century records in the U.S., Canada, and the British Isles; today it remains uncommon but familiar via the better‑known Corinne. Possible nicknames include Cori/Cory, Reen, and Rina.
