I’m due a girl in 2 weeks who will probably be my last, but just in case...

Corin for a boy: yea or nay? Any immediate associations?

There was a Corin in the famous Redgrave acting dynasty - Vanessa and Lynn Redgrave's brother. I've only come across Corinne as the female version.

I thought of Prince Corin from the Horse and his Boy straight away

The only Corin I've heard of is Corin Redgrave, Vanessa's brother.

I only know boy Corins. I know a Corina and a Corrine, who are both girls.

I wouldn't use it for a boy. I've only known girl Korens/Corins.

The only Corin I know is a girl so I would see it as a girl's name. I don't know the background to the name though so maybe it's not.
