It makes me think “corridor” too I’m afraid.

How about Callahan, Cormoran, Corcoran?

GoodnightGrandma · 11/09/2021 17:18

No.
What about Conrad ?

loopylu26 · 11/09/2021 17:20

Not keen but like Corey

VictoriaBun · 11/09/2021 17:20

Sounds like Corian, a woktop material.

I’ve never heard it before. When I read it quickly I assumed it was a typo for the surname Corrigan.
For me it’s too unusual and I think the person who has this name will spend his lifetime repeating and spelling it.

@Em45634

He is your baby, give him a name you love. The name I chose is slated on here but suits my child and I love it. Better then to share a name with 5 other kids in the class!
We went with the name and when you see his little face it suits him I'm glad I didn't listen to other peoples advice

Sorry it reminds me of corridor!! I think there are better alternatives. How about

Kerrigan
Corin
Conor
Cormac
Cameron
Callum
Harrison

Comhghairdeas! Congratulations!
Corridan is an intriguing name - it's rare to hear something new but with real history behind it. It is a valid variation on "Corrigan" which probably meant "spear". There is also a mythical Breton creature with the same name.

I'm glad you went with it OP. People get used to new names, I love Corey. He won't be bullied, kids don't care about names, they just accept them.

Buddhabowl · 17/12/2021 10:57

And of course congratulations on your new little bundle Corridan Flowers

WhiskersPete · 17/12/2021 11:09

Sounds like a cross between corridor and Daniel

@Buddhabowl

And of course congratulations on your new little bundle Corridan Flowers
Aww Thankyou he's a little stunner to say the least 🥰 I have had compliments on his name by people who ask and he won't get bullied for his name people who say that can be so cruel to assume the worst I have an unusual name and never got bullied for it 🙄🙄 merry Christmas Thankyou xx
