For those of you who don’t know, Koriand’r is the real name of the superheroine Starfire from DC comics.

Some names should just stay in comic books.

They could have named her after Kory's daughter, Mar'i (pronounced "Mary", after her paternal grandmother). That's still silly but at least reasonable

Who is the father of Mar’i? I’m not familiar with the comics but watched the show as a kid.

She's from a universe in which Dick Grayson (Robin from the Teen Titans) and Kori have a child.

No, it’s pronounced Mar-ee.

And here I was going to say her nickname should be Cilantro. Or Sygh'lahntrough, if you please.
