Meaning and history

Karrie is a modern English spelling variant of Carrie. Carrie can be a diminutive of Caroline or Charlotte, feminine forms related to Charles, from a Germanic word meaning “man” or “free man.” It can also shorten Karen or other names, so its exact source varies by bearer. The altered spelling does not establish a separate meaning. A notable bearer is Australian professional golfer Karrie Webb, a multiple major champion and member of the World Golf Hall of Fame.
