There is no "Carrie" in The Bible.

"Carrie" derives from the Old Germanic word "carl", which means a free-born peasant. "Carl" was first used as a proper name hundreds of years after the Bible was written. Later still, the feminine form "Caroline" was coined.

I don't think anyone would have been called by the diminutive "Carrie" before the eighteenth century.
