Corinn is a variant of Corinna and Corinne, ultimately from the Greek name Korinna. The name likely derives from the Greek word 'korē' (maiden) and is associated with the ancient Greek poetess Corinna, who was a contemporary of Pindar in the 5th century BC. The name has been used in English-speaking countries since the 19th century, often as a feminine form of Corin or a short form of Corinne.
