Coraline
The meaning of Coraline is 'heart' or 'a young unmarried woman'. The name Coraline is an amalgamation of two words: 'cora' meaning 'truthful' and 'just' and Caroline, meaning 'free' and 'independent woman'. The Russian and Polish variant of the name is Koralina, whereas the French variant of the name is Coralie. In French, the meaning of Coraline is 'pear'. Coraline is also associated with the Latin word 'corallium', which means 'a genus of coral'. These are hard, skeleton-bodied invertebrate animals residing at the bottom of the seas and oceans. Coraline is therefore also a name associated with nature and hidden beauty. Historically, the sailing ships used to hunt coral were also named Coraline. Coraline is also the name of the protagonist in the famous horror and fantasy novel 'Coraline'. It was written in 2002 by Neil Gaiman and was later adapted into an animation film.
