Your little Carrin is sure to have a beautiful personality. A variation of Karin or Karen, this feminine moniker has Swedish roots. Carrin is a diminutive form of the Greek name Katherine, which has a debated meaning. Deriving from the term katharos, it is thought to signify “pure,” but it can also be traced back to the goddess Hecate. Magic and spells were Hecate’s realm of power, so perhaps baby Carrin may have some witchy interests. This spin on a trending name is a fun way to instill a caring yet powerful spirit in baby.
