About Carrie
Carrie lives on mainly on the screen, as the new/old antiheroine of Stephen King's classic Carrie, as turn-of-the-21st-century diva Carrie Bradshaw of Sex & The City, and as Claire Danes' Emmy-winning character Carrie Mathison of Homeland.
In real life, however, Carrie dropped off the Top 1000 a handful of years ago and, while the name retains some charm, shows no signs of making an imminent comeback. Try Cara instead.
Carrie is also given to boys.
Pronounced KAR-ee.
As of October 2026, Carrie ranked #2726 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #20 in 1880, Nameberry popularity #752.
