Korynna is a feminine name that appears to be a modern variant spelling of Corinna, which has ancient Greek origins meaning 'maiden' or possibly relating to the Greek word 'kore' meaning 'girl' or 'daughter.' The distinctive spelling with a 'K' and double 'n' gives the name a contemporary flair while maintaining its classical roots. Corinna was the name of an ancient Greek lyric poet, lending the name literary and artistic associations. As Korynna, the name is quite rare, appealing to parents who want a name with classical origins but a modern twist. The name has a melodic quality and feminine ending typical of many girls' names. Its uniqueness makes it unlikely a child would share this name with classmates, while still being relatively intuitive to pronounce.
