We where talking about this in world cultures the other day. My teacher has a friend that is from the Caribbean and she says it's pronounced Kur-i-bee-in, and that she can't stand it when people say it the other way.

my best friend is from the caribbean, she says it was named after the Caribs (a group of people) so it's pronounced CAR-i-bee-an, not car-IH-bee-an.
