History & Origin

Corion is a contemporary coinage pairing a Cor- opening with an -ion ending that clearly evokes Orion, the hunter of Greek myth and one of the brightest constellations. It belongs to the modern taste for strong, invented boys' names.

It appeared only in small numbers, no more than a few dozen boys a year around 2005, and reads as an inventive twist rather than an inherited name. Its power comes from the Orion echo and its firm sound.

Did you know? Corion rings with Orion, the great hunter of Greek myth set among the stars - a heroic echo folded into a modern coinage.
