Κάρρι

As you know there is no translation of the name. I can offer a transliteration using the Greek alphabet. The name Carrie in Greek would be :
Κάρρι - first letter in capitals
κάρρι - all lowercase
ΚΑΡΡΙ - all capitalized

This particular name tends to not even be transliterated in most Greek sites. Only a few have it in Greek letters. I cite one of them placing the name in between asterisks

Also other sites have your name transliterated in the Greek language but simplifying it by \"eliminating\" the second r .. That would look like this :

Κάρι - first letter in capitals
κάρι - all lowercase
ΚΑΡΙ - all capitalized

Νο sopecific fascination with Carrie Ann Moss .. I just found it easier to look up the name using hers as a search base.

Actually, to avoid confusion with the indian herd, it would be better if it was spelled: ΚΑΡΙ - κάρι
