Corrin is Scottish Gaelic in Origin.
Corrin is a modern English given name with layered roots. As a variant spelling of Corin, it traces to Latin Quirinus, a Roman theonym often interpreted as “spear-bearer” or “wielder of the spear.” It also overlaps with Corinne/Corinna, the French and Latinized forms of Greek Korinna, a diminutive of Kore “maiden,” giving Corrin a parallel feminine reading. The result is a genuinely unisex choice with two established meaning paths.
In use, Corrin echoes the pastoral Corin of Shakespeare’s As You Like It and the 19th‑century vogue for Corinne. On the Isle of Man, Corrin is a familiar surname that sometimes migrates to the first‑name spot. Contemporary media, including the Fire Emblem series, has raised its profile. Related forms and spellings include Corin, Corinne, Corrine, Corinna, Corryn, Korrin, Korin, and Korinne; short forms Cory and Rin are common nicknames.
