Korina (pronounced koh-REE-nuh /koʊˈriːnə/) is a feminine given name of Greek origin, derived from the ancient word korē—meaning “maiden.” In onomastic terms, it represents a variant of Corinna, invoking the legacy of the Greek lyric poet Corinna of Tanagra and carrying a classical resonance across English-speaking contexts. In the United States, Korina has maintained a modest yet stable presence in naming charts, ranking between the mid-800s and low-900s over the past two decades; 25 recorded births in 2024 placed it 925th. Its niche standing—rare enough that one would not expect a namesake in a typical preschool class—underscores an enduring, if understated, appeal.
