Corun is in Origin.

Corun is a rare modern given name, likely formed in English. It is most often treated as a streamlined variant of Corin, familiar from Shakespeare’s As You Like It; Corin ultimately derives from Latin Quirinus, usually interpreted as "spear-bearer" or "of the spear." Its sound also aligns with Celtic regions - recalling Welsh/Cornish patterns and the Galician place-name A Coruña - though no traditional use of Corun is attested in those languages.

Documented use is sporadic from the late twentieth century onward, generally as a unisex choice with a slight masculine tilt. Variants and related forms include Corin, Corrin, Coryn, Coren, Coran, and Corwin/Corwyn; feminine counterparts include Corinne and Corina, with the nickname Cory. If taken from Corin, the meaning is "spear-bearer"; some modern users also read it via Latin cor "heart," a contemporary reinterpretation rather than a historical etymology.
