Origin of the name CORIN.
Etymology of the name CORIN.
Meaning of the baby name CORIN.

  

CORIN.  Cornish.  Probably the same as Celtic Coran (q.v.), possibly meaning "horned," from a diminutive form of cor (a round hill), or corr "a snout." (?).  There is a Latin form, Corineus.

    Corin, "strongest of mortal men," and one of the suite of Brute (the first mythical king of Britain).  

From Corin came it first? [i.e. the Cornish hug in wrestling].  Drayton: Polyolbion, L (1612).
