Comments (Meaning / History Only)

If I didn't know that this name was Greek, and if I had to guess what it meant based on my knowledge of Latin, I would probably guess that it meant "heart", because of the "cor" part of it (which is Latin for heart).
Korinna was an epithet of Persephone.
Kore is indeed "maiden" and ina is a diminutive. The whole name would mean "little girl". Also, Corinna was Ovid's great love, the woman who got him exiled.
