Meaning and Origination of the name Curran

This is for all those illeterate bastards to know what is the Meaning and Origination of my name -"CURRAN"

Since my childhood till date, people i guess arent aware as to what my name means and how it is pronounced.


Here you go ... please nail this life long into your empty skull.


The boy's name Curran \c( ur )-ran\ is pronounced KER-an.


It is of Irish and Gaelic origin, and its meaning is "dagger; hero".


Curran is a very rare male first name and a very popular surname (source: 1990 U.S. Census).

Personalities with the name Curran - Keiven Curran, Tim Curran and yes ofcourse Curran Thakkar

Displayed below is the baby name popularity trend for the boy's name Curran and also indicating how rare this name is.

Surprising but the fact - It doesnt even feature in the top common 1000 names worldwide.





It took me nearly 2 months to locate this data ... so that i can slap on those people's face and help them increase their vocab and pronounciation abilities.

All thanks to my school and college friends for mis-pronouncing this over years. But at the end, who cares.

To conclude, i would like to thank all those who have got my name correct on the first go.

NOTE : Pls dont mind certain words used in this blog arent professional. Its just the frustration flowing out in form of words.
