Corben Origin and Meaning

The name Corben is a girl's name.

Corben as a feminine name is an unusual gender crossover from what is traditionally a masculine name (a variant of Corbin). The name derives from Old French 'corbeau' meaning 'raven' or from an Old English topographical surname referring to someone who lived near a hollow in the land. While typically used for boys, its emergence as a girls' name represents the modern trend of gender-neutral naming. The feminine usage remains quite rare, giving girls named Corben a distinctive identity. The name carries strong, nature-inspired undertones and a contemporary feel. For parents seeking an unconventional choice with strong sounds and nature connections, feminine Corben offers a bold alternative to more traditional girls' names.
