Corrina is an English and German variant of Corinna, itself derived from the ancient Greek name Korinna, based on the root kore meaning maiden or girl. The Greek lyric poet Corinna of Tanagra, said to have been a contemporary and rival of Pindar, is among the earliest known bearers of the name. The form Corrina reflects a common respelling that softens the classical spelling while preserving the sound. Related forms include Corina, Corinna, and the French variant Corinne.
