I think this name will now fall out of use because of the virus.

Everyone’s saying COVID, I think of the beer… well and COVID.

This name would be an appealing one if it wasn't for Covid, though Connie would be a good nickname to disguise it with.

I agree with all users below. Anyone can say they like the name Corona, but a shame the pandemic ruined it. If you want another similar-sounding name, try Karina for example.

It WAS a nice name. But will be unusable for at least a century. I also heard about twins called Corona and Covid, which is just sad.

I find this name super pretty, it is a shame about the fact that people were referring to covid by its virus type for a while kinda ruined it for some people, I still really like it.

Sorry. This name just so ruined by the virus, but it is a saint's name. :'(

The virus has totally ruined this name, which is probably why it got such a bad rating. This name seriously has a bad rap, which is sad because I like this name, and I would use it if I could.

I've given this name more thought... I still think the pandemic is obviously a very negative association. We probably all know someone who has succumbed to "Miss Rona", however the name has a beauty and meaning that I think will help it transcend tragedy and beer. Already, I hear most people referring to it as COVID than as Corona. The association is still there strongly, but there's hope.
Maybe my great-grandchildren will name their twins Phoenix and Corona.
And, hey, there's always Kreindel.:b.

This name is so pretty. COVID-19 made this name unusable. Even after 20 years, people will probably still bully you because of the virus. Sad name.

I think this would be a really sad name… The sound of it is undeniably beautiful, but the association with COVID-19 is heartbreaking….

Beautiful name but the virus ruined this name- what a shame!

I love the meaning. If someone bullies a poor kid with this name referring to the pandemic, I'm busting those stupid bullies who know nothing about names and who don't give a damn balderdash about their actual personality.
Hey, kids/people with the name 'Corona', I'm for you. I admire you!

Yeah people will just think of the virus. However, it does mean crown, which is quite beautiful.

I changed my mind. Corona is honestly a beautiful name, and 50 years from now, most people would probably forget about the virus, but maybe still might get a few teasings.

Corona Australis (Southern Crown) and Corona Borealis (Northern Crown) are constellations.

A pretty name, just sad most people will associate it with a virus. Maybe in 30 years it will be more usable as a name.

In around 10 or 15 years it'll probably be usable again, I think. I think it's pretty, and quite interesting.

All these people in 2005 to 2018 like, ¨This name is so unique and interesting, very nice name,¨ Now: ¨Gosh I feel bad for anyone with this name¨.

The coronavirus didn't ruin this name for me at all. I associate the name with the Corona of the sun. I think it's beautiful.

Saint Corona lived in 2nd century Italy. She was martyred for the Faith along with her brother-in-law Saint Victor. The cause of her death: she was tied to two bent palm trees and they released them and she was torn from limb-to-limb. Ironically, she is the patroness of plagues and pandemics. Saint Corona, pray for us!

I still think it’s usable, a good twin name is “Tier 465 thousand”.

If there was no such thing as Coronavirus I would think this is a pretty and cute name but NOT anymore!

"Corona got the CoronaVirus"...no. Not a good name.

To be honest, it’s a really pretty name.

Corona virus is called that because of the microscopic cells that are shaped like crowns, hence what it means in Latin.

This name wasn't popular even before Corona disease, probably not many people have this name. It looks interesting, sounds a little bit strange, it is alright, but really not that good.

To all of the morons who post that this name is ruined thanks to a stupid Chinese virus, it's not for me and I’m pretty sure that there are others who think the same way as me.

I love this name, it's super gorgeous, but coronavirus and the beer brand have both ruined it :(

A quick Google search will let you know that Corona is literally Spanish for Crown. To be quite frank I don't know why at the beginning they decided to call the virus Corona, especially with there being the beer brand.

This is my surname. It used to be just fine until the 'rona hit. Now people are calling us Rona and Covid. Me and my son.

It’s a cute name but I would say it’s no longer usable because of the beer brand and that darn virus.

It might have been okay to use at some point (though still not keen myself) but do we really need to explain why this is a name best avoided now? I wouldn’t go anywhere near it.

Naming someone after the virus is bad but the the beer is still a viable nickname.

The Coronavirus also known as COVID-19 is a disease that was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. Others argue that the Coronavirus was lab made. COVID-19 has made a big impact in the world such as shutting down stores (or shorter hours), quarantine, remote learning, racism to Asians (Specifically Chinese people), COVID-19 recession, and delays of events.

Beautiful, but with the virus and all it'll be years and years before it's usable again. It already had it bad enough with the beer association.

Lovely name. Lovely meaning. Love the saintly association, and is easy to spell.
But, the pandemic definitely ruined it. I definitely would have kept this in mind for a child or a character in a book someday, but not with the horrible virus that’s killing so many people right now.

Lol, could have been a lovely name, but thanks to both the brand of beer and the Coronavirus, nobody will be able to take your little Corona seriously.

This name was ruined like the name Isis, and, to some extent, Katrina. It will be remembered as a tragic event.

Person named Corona: walks into the bar. "Hey, I'd like a Corona please?".
Bartender: "Yeah sure, let me see your ID, please".
Corona: *Hands over ID*
Bartender after reading the name: "Oh.."
Seriously, if you named your kid Corona then I have an extreme amount of empathy for you. :(.

It is also a name from the region of Vincenza, from a church called Santa Corona, and I had a great-great grandmother from the region named Corona.
My name is also Corona, and I studied in Canada, and yes I always went by 'yes like the beer...' but now it may become 'yes like the virus...'
It is getting a bit tiring to see people mention Corona alone instead of Covid19 or coronavirus for this virus/pandemic.

I think this name will be another current event casualty like the name Isis. Outside of a deadly pandemic or a popular beer it really would have been a nice name. It will be forever tainted now, unless perhaps as people erroneously pray to the patron saint of treasure hunters incorrectly thinking she's the patron saint of pandemics, and if for some reason that veneration seems to have a miraculous effect for some, then this name has a small chance for redemption, at least in small numbers. But even with that, it will still be the beer bottles that litter our local park...

Twins named Corona and Covid. No lie. I have never thought of this as a given name but I feel real bad for anyone who was named this before the virus, and I feel especially bad for any boy or girl who would be named Covid or Corona because of the coronavirus outbreak. It’s like naming your daughter Katrina after the hurricane that destroyed your home...

Apparently, recently in India, two twin sisters were named Corona, the other Covid. I ain't lying.

Imagine if your name was Corona and you got the coronavirus, or if you were at a bar and you asked for a Corona.
Basically, to sum it all up; anyone bearing this name would get an enormous number of jokes about it. If it weren't for that, I'd kind of like this name :(.

Whoops! Too late to change that name. Sorry parents! Might have deep regret. Ooh, that's unlucky. If you have this name, I feel bad. Don't think it's a coincidence if you get the Coronavirus, many people have it. Wow.

I think this is a pretty name. The "cor" part of this name makes me think of the Latin word for heart (at least, I think Cor is Latin for "heart").
