Comments for CORIANDER:
From the ancient Greek word "Kori'Annon", which was the name of the spice, but also the name of a woman ornament.-- Damis 3/18/2005
Coriander can also be used as the full form of Cory.-- hho 4/23/2005
Coriander has to be the world's yuckiest herb!-- Caprice 1/13/2006
I would always stress the 3rd syllable: "kor-ee-AN-dur".-- Elly747 5/20/2006
The herb is gross, but I love the name.-- bschoer10 6/10/2006
I am not exactly sure why you would name your child after a spice. That's kind of weird. Kind of reminds me of Koriand'r from Teen Titans aka Kory Anders. Hm.-- Hyugafalcon 6/11/2007
This is just really werid. I suppose the next kid will be Oregano.-- scholasticastewart 2/26/2008
I've also seen it as Corianda.-- Anonymous User 2/27/2008
Some names ending in -er sound feminine, like Amber, Piper, and Winter. This isn't one of them. It sounds masculine to me. On the other hand, it doesn't sound like a name to begin with, and it just seems weird as one.-- slight night shiver 5/19/2008
This feels more like a masculine name to me and I usually treat it as such. Also, I'm pretty sure when I looked it up on a different name site, it was listed as masculine. No matter, I absolutely love this name, whatever gender it is.-- Hato-chan 1/3/2009
A coriander seed used to be used to start the dipping process in making a jawbreaker candy and the leafy parts (cilantro) are used in making salsa, I figure that the meaning for the name Coriander should be "sugar and spice and everything nice."-- JewelGatherer 3/16/2009
According to Wikipedia (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_of_flowers), "lust" is the symbolic meaning of the Coriander flower, in the Victorian-era language of flowers. Yikes!-- SeaHorse15 4/9/2009
Coriander is an awesome name, and you could always shorten it to Cory or something. But this name sounds so masculine, and is better on a boy.-- -Julia- 8/26/2009
This name is full of spunk and provides two decent nicknames: the obvious Cory (or Cori) and Andi.
It sounds like a very strong feminine name, or a strong masculine name. I, however, like it on a girl.-- DaphneSusan 11/2/2010
This name is on my guilty pleasure list (for a girl). I think it's adorable and has the nickname options of either Cori or Andie. I'd never be brave enough to use it though.-- Anonymous User 1/29/2011
Coriander is the name of the main character of I, Coriander by Sally Gardner; so ever since I read that book, I've really liked this name.-- Anonymous User 5/27/2011
