I don't much like Corin. Karen, pronounced KAHrin like my Danish aunt, is excellent; pronounced KArin or CAREin, I don't enjoy it at all.

Karen - It's an okay name yet still pretty. Corin - It's alright for me.

Maybe people should start a massive Karen naming campign just to hack off the idiots who tried to denigrate such a pleasant name in the first place. Always found it uttery inoffensive and the people I know with it admirable.
Corin makes me want Corbin and assume its typo, so thays not good.

I don’t like Karen pronounced KARE-in but I do like Karin pronounced KAHR-in. Corin is okay. It’s different.

I love Corin because it sounds fresh. I do not like Karen. Other than it sounding "old", I am not entirely sure why I don't like it. It might be the mixture of sounds in question that I do not like, because I also do not like Sharon or Carol. However, I do like Maren and Carrie. The stereotype has nothing to do with my feelings towards it.

Every Karen I've met has been a really nice lady.
I don't like Corin spelled like that but I do like Corinne.

i've always loved Karen. It's a sweet name and most of the Karens I've known were really good people. I dislike Corin, it reminds me of Corwin Auto Sales (a local used car dealership with a bad rep) I do like Corrine, though.
