Origin:French
Meaning:Friend; Hurricane
Although rare in the US, Corentin is a winner in France and boy, does it have an intriguing meaning! This boy's name is rooted in the word kar, meaning "friend," and coruentenn, meaning "hurricane" or "tempest." While it may equip baby with a big heart, they may have a talent for causing a bit of drama with their pals. Luckily, there are tons of picture books to help you steer them toward a less disorderly path! Try Sharing a Shell by Donaldson and Monks or Grumpy Frog by Ed Vere. Corentin is quite popular in France, probably because of Saint Corentin of Quimper. A bit of a solitary man, he was one of seven founding saints of Brittany and the patron saint of seafood. Who else gets Sharknado vibes?
