Corrine

Girl name · 91 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Corrine: 91 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 7 births in 1983.

Corrine is a French variant of Corinne, which traces back through Latin to the ancient Greek name Korinna, meaning "maiden" or "young girl." The name gained modern recognition through singer-songwriter Corinne Bailey Rae, whose soulful hits brought it into popular culture, as well as Corinne Olympios, a television personality. While no major places bear the name directly, its root shares ancestry with the Greek word for "maiden," giving it a timeless, gentle quality. Corrine is a less common but equally charming spelling of Corinne, offering a slightly different rhythm while retaining the same elegant, lyrical feel—a lovely choice for parents seeking a name that feels both classic and softly romantic.
