Currin Origin and Meaning
The name Currin is a girl's name.
Currin is a rare feminine name with possible roots as a variant of Curran, an Irish surname meaning 'hero' or 'spear.' It may also derive from geographical origins, referring to someone who lived near a marsh or bog (from Old English 'curr,' meaning swamp). As a first name, Currin has maintained extreme rarity throughout recorded naming history, never appearing on popular naming charts. It offers a distinctive quality with its unusual sound pattern and may appeal to parents seeking a name with Irish heritage connections or those looking for a unique nature-inspired option that carries subtle strength. Some families choose it to honor a maternal family surname or for its contemporary unisex sound quality.
